Sydney Pelagics are Restarting in February

Following my previous message on birding-aus before Christmas, I am very pleased to announce that Hal and I have sourced a suitable boat which will be well suited for use on pelagic trips out of Sydney. The boat is a two level medium speed catamaran. It is intended to run the trips on a co-op basis where members of the co-op will take the possible financial risk if numbers are not good and benefit from a lower cost of travel. If anyone has an interest to be part of the group, then please contact me or Hal (who is at hepstein@bigpond.net.au> hepstein@bigpond.net.au) The first trip is scheduled (subject to weather of course) for SATURDAY 15 FEBRUARY 2014 and will depart from Mosman Wharf at 6.45am and Rose Bay Public Wharf at 7.00am – return to Mosman will be by 4.00pm. Please contact me or Hal to make a booking .The tour costs will be the same as they were on Halicat i.e. $120 and seniors /students $110 As an incentive for regulars prepared to commit to a minimum of 5 tours each season we are considering offering a $100 concessional fare . Again please advise of your interest . We are tentatively planning future trips for April, June, July, August, September, October and possibly November and will give more information on this when we have it. We look forward to our first trip next month.
