Wizard,
welcome to the clan and hope to meet up with you someday. I have also heard about this meeting of Macs in the Whitsundays, but alas know no more.
Would like to try it myself next year, as I'm sure that it would be a trip to remember.

See ya later

Brian

Phil King used to organise an annual cruise in the Whitsundays. I think that there were so many boats a few years ago, that they had to split the cruise into two - too many boats pulling into the marinas at one time!

Give Phil an email to see.

For anybody heading up to the Whitsundays - take a look and post on trailersailerplace.com.au
There is always a group of TSP people cruising the whitsundays during that time of the year. They will even cruise with Mac's.
