Recent history:
In 2022 it was sailed up all the way from Sydney to the Whitsundays (see Jeremy Platt on YouTube). The previous owner then lived aboard exploring the Whitsundays and sailed it up to Cairns. I now bought the boat in Cairns, currently in Bundaberg and will continue on down to Brisbane.
Viewings in Brisbane/Moreton Bay are possible from the beginning of December onwards.
