Staying on the boat in Burrum Heads was an amazing experience. Dave is really kind and welcoming, working with him on the boats is fun and educational. It's a great and peaceful place to relaxe, surrounded by beautiful nature. In my free time I got to explore the little town, beautiful beaches, go kayaking and watch stunning sunsets. Dave, thank you for hosting me and I wish you all the best for your future, hope to be back one day!

We stayed just one night on Dave's yacht, but it was truly memorable! He welcomed us with delicious pork BBQ and homemade rum — a fun evening of laughs and great stories. Dave is a generous, funny host. We helped tidy up the boat for the next guests and loved the peaceful, nature-filled setting shaped by the tides. Sadly, we had to leave early due to Mari's allergic reaction to midges. Thanks, Dave, and best wishes for your future adventures!
