Exploring Bathurst Harbour in @tasmanian_boat_charters tender means going where few have gone before. Narrow gorges, shallow bays, secret rivers. It also means going ashore to climb hills, cross button grass plains and marsupial lawns. #southwestnationalpark #bathurstharbour #expeditioncruising #tasmaniaSensational #sunrise was the reward for getting up early on our last morning aboard @tasmanian_boat_charters Odalisque. And what a morning, crisp, cold, stunning. Thanks to @petermarmion for finding the best spots to photograph and @andrewbrucewilson for helping us to capture them. #portdavey #tasmanianboatcharters #photographytour #astwHere is Odalisque, our luxury expedition base while exploring remote Port Davey in Southwest National Park in Tasmania. This custom built, 20 metre expedition vessel takes a maximum of 10 guests along with a crew including expert guide and chef. Owner and skipper Pieter van der Woude based the aluminium design on his previous abalone fishing boat so it can withstand the rigours of the Southern Ocean. It is based on a Mark Ellis Marine design, built by Legend Boat Builders in Western Australia and is powered by a Caterpillar C18 marine engine. #odalisque #expeditioncruise #tasmania @tasmanian_boat_chartersMarsupial lawns, button grass moorlands and tannin-tinted waters, it’s another world in Tasmania’s Southwest Wilderness. And accessing from the water gives yet another perspective. @tasmanian_boat_charters @tasmania #southwestnationalpark- My Tweets
