Visiting Hamilton Island

Recommended Posts

We have South Molle Island at our port side. When the weather holds, we should reach Hamilton Island in time for sundowners.

Do go ahead, you are faster than we are

We are about to enter the marina of Hamilton Island

To back a large single screw ship into its assigned berth is a very tricky undertaking, but we have finally managed. Yet, compared with these Mega-Yachts, I feel so tiny.

Let’s explore the island a bit. The building across the marina entrance is the Hamilton Island Yacht Club

The restaurant is called “Bommie”

Walking along Front Street, we pass by Bob’s bakery

Here on Acacia Drive we have a nice view of neighboring Dent Island

And tomorrow, our Mooney will bring us from Hamilton to Rockhampton

A nice set of different perspectives than the norm Bernd. With that ship I would have expected you to go searching for Kong Island :D Still, you managed a nice relaxing looking evening in port :)

Travelling in style, bernd, and you show us what a good landing looks like.

Convincing details of the bars at Hamilton Island...

Plus: You have a good water setting!

Thanks a lot, Gerold. The water settings can be manipulated in the sim, a feature I like very much, as it makes it more life-like ;)

Hahaha, great idea, Landon! But Kong Island might be difficult to locate I'm afraid. Some place it off the coast of Periuk in Indonesia, others see it as an island around Hawaii and then there is also the possibility to have it south of the equator, off the Pacific coast of South America :D

But doesn't that make it all the more exciting? :D
