Public notice boards on Magnetic Island offer many and varied items for sale, job positions , University of Third Age courses , well read garage sale dates. Lots of tinnies and outboards and cars are offered for sale , occasionally a yacht. Missing birds, musical tuition , hair braiding , dancing lessons , the North Queensland home brewing contest.
From time to time crew is requested for a Pacific cruise. One nautical notice placed by a seemingly self described "Cool Skipper " , not very strong in the spelling department , has attracted the attention of backpackers and others at Horseshoe Bay . It reads :
There are two self contained cabins and for some three to four hours work a day aboard this desirable " mulitlevel vessel", perhaps a deep sea mullet trawler ?, you could partake in a sunset cruise , fishing and " snokeling " equipment provided . It is also OK to smoke onboard , thanks to the cool skipper.
A room to rent notice at Nelly Bay clearly stated no meth user need apply.
