South Stradbroke
Owning a yacht provides a huge amount of freedom and flexibility. One of the biggest questions we get asked is what to do with this luxury. We believe the answer is to visit exclusive waterfront cafes and restaurants. Each month we will be sharing a new place to try out and enjoy.
This blog is going to spill the beans on the best spot to tie off and visit in South Stradbroke…

Versatile, Reliable, and Just Fun: A Real Owner’s Mandurah Axopar 28 T-Top Review
Rob Hammond lives in Mandurah, Western Australia, and uses his Axopar 28 T-Top for everything from estuary dolphin cruises to offshore solo adventures to Rottnest.
“I’ve had boats for most of my working life. These are just phenomenal,” Rob says. “They’re absolutely fabulous in the sea. I use it quite a bit on my own — it’s really easy to manhandle. She’s so versatile, you can just do anything. I often go dolphin watching in the estuary. My wife loves it too because you’ve got full access all the way around. And you can still sleep on it in the cabin.”

Is the Axopar 37 Cross Cabin the Best Family Day Boat in Australia? – John
John, Axopar 37 Cross Cabin owner from Perth, says,
“I’ve got a family of three, twin girls who are seven and a nine-year-old, and it’s just the ideal family day boat. It’s very typical in the afternoon here to have strong southwesterlies, 15 to 20 knots. The kids get a bit cool, so I chose the Cross Cabin. It gives them protection, they have fun all day with the water toys, then come in to warm up, have something to eat, maybe rest on the daybed. It just allows us to have a full day of enjoyment without whiny kids at 2 or 3 in the afternoon. Mum and Dad are really happy too. We love our Axopar, it’s a great boat, a lot of fun, and ideal for Perth.”
