Boat descriptionAll safety equipment onboard 3 spacious cabins twin helm with raymarine electronics water maker private shower and head for crew Large cockpit with bbq Full galley Fridge and freezer. Multiple VHF radios, Electronics, chart plotters, water maker etc Inflatable tender. What Luna Due needs is a friendly cruisy crew. We are no racing here (but we could) so there is so much opportunity to get to know the yacht. She is very well equipped. Ideally we will end up doing longer and longer passages which will be exciting for all. Looking for people who are keen to learn but also bring knoweldge aboard on navigation, weather, diving, fishing, or any number of things which could add value to all crew members. But most importantly is we all leave our egos at the dock and have some fun. Expect to take the helm if you get sick of the autopilot :-) , trim sails, if comfortable doing so.

Bundaberg to Mackay review March 2025

I crewed for Peter and found him polite and knowledgeable with sailing (racing perhaps) but a little anxious with coastal sailing in Nth Queensland. He appears to have a lot of racing experience whereas I’ve had 22 delivery and coastal sailing voyages since 2019. These being between Townsville to Sydney and most points in between. The Outer Great Barrier Reef system, around Tasmania, Victoria, Sth Australia and Great Australian Bight journeys too. I’m no expert and always learning. The boat is very well presented but very warm down below. Peter has installed mini fans for airflow and plans to install a very large air conditioner in the near future. Windlass, sails, sheets, auto helm, navigation systems and safety equipment in good and serviceable condition. A life raft would be a valuable addition to the yacht. Peter’s knowledge of North Queensland islands, north of the Keppels, appear to be limited in my opinion. The where and when to anchor type decisions need more experience. Sometimes it’s a better option to keep sailing when safe to do so, rather than anchor in unsuitable areas and or conditions. The North Queensland Islands and reefs are also not the place to lay 2x chain length verses water depth but 4 to 5x as a minimum. For potential future crew. By all means sail with Peter, but previous experience of North Queensland coastal and offshore waters would be of value for a safer passage if you’re in that area.
