The weather can be unpredictable out here, and and there is nowhere to hide, but when it turns on, itโs just magic ๐

Only a few weeks until our mothership leaves Darwin, Daly River bound for the beginning of the season ๐๐ผ
We have had some good rains this year with the river still in flood. This will make for some good fishing in 2024. Although, we could use another monsoon .. ๐ค๐ฝ

The transformation of the main bathroom was nothing short of amazing !
We completely stripped the walls from all the fittings, including some racks, the sink, lights, the mirror etc.
Then we wash and sanded all the fibreglass to give it a a firm finish for the paint to stick too. I think we ended up painting this bathroom about three times with a special two pack paint.
We then fixed the new sink, cistern, lights, holders and a brand new shower curtain.
It is now ready for YOU!
Taking bookings now for 2025 and 2026 ๐๐ผ

I wish this was actual real time of us installing the kitchenโฆ itโs obviously not.
Have you ever put together a flat pack kitchen? Because of the location and the space, we decided to design and install the kitchen ourselves - it was challenging, but fun.
We made it work and it turned out great!

We all love a good before and after shot ๐๐ผ
Howโs this ! This is the one of the three bedrooms for our customers onboard FatCat. Originally this was a seating / dining area.
As we added the extension out the back - we thought it would be more useful as a bedroom.
Couple of minor things to finish, but it come up mint ๐๐ผ

We have the advantage of offering two 7 metre guided fishing tenders boats, that are sure to get you amongst the fish and escape the crowds; this is fishing at its best!
