About to turn the light off last night, one distinct splash against the starboard hull.

Nice to think maybe a dolphin saw the light on and thought he'd drop in and say hello.

Love living aboard

I have not seen too many dolphins round the whitsundays of late but many sightings of sharks,I think I may slip and paint rather than dive and scrape!!

I'm not in the whitsundays...but yikes...didn't even think of the bull sharks endemic around here where I live...DENIAL....it's not just a river in Africa lol!

Went for a snorkel this morning at Moreton in ****ty, turbid overcast conditions with the tide ripping through and got a scare when I saw a long black shape underneath me...still not sure but I've never swum back to the boat so fast.

I think the crocs and sharks are striking back now that they know they are protected.
