I think they were mostly northern waters orientated. Could be wrong there....🤔 The one I liked cruised via Cairns north, in October, but I didn't retain the itinerary, because I was already on holidays.

Do you remember the cruise company for that cruise. I think the one that had several cruise around the north of Australia, is Coral Cruises. From memory they had three maybe four small ships, cant remember pax numbers, but feel they would have been around 50 the one hundred pax sizes. Don't quote me on that, I'm probably wrong.

You are correct, they are based in Cairns. But it wasn't them because I cruised with them this year. They are currently doing an around Australia voyage. I'll find details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have dark mode turned on my computer which blacked out all the white information on your chart and only showed the ports not the ships. As soon as I turned off dark mode everything magically appeared. Your chart was great, nothing wrong with it unlike my brain.😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
