I'v just got back from sailing the Whitsundays and am feeling very burnt but very happy, had an amazing time. To start the story i got the overnight bus up here (no sleep) and right away got on to finding a boat to get on the next day. After a bit of research i found you could either go for the cheaper option of a 'Party Boat' or spend a bit more and go for a classic sailing boat.

Im still in Noosa but thought it was about time for an update, but to be honest theres not much to tell.
