Queensland Sea Day 2019

Report by Wal Farquar 

 Wednesday 19 June was a perfect Sunshine Coast day for the annual NoC’s Sea Day on the Pumicestone Passage.   NoC member, Ken McBryde, kindly provides his delightful ferry ‘Tern of the Tide’ for a charter cruise of the passage, wildlife, local canals and the Caloundra shorefront.  This year was the tenth cruise and each year the passage is seen to change primarily due to the increasing population of the Sunshine Coast.  All agreed a pleasant lunch at the Caloundra Power Boat Club rounded off an enjoyable day.’
