Ise Pearl
“Ise Pearl” named after the Japanese pearling town “Ise” famous
for the cultured pearl industry is a gaff rigged topsail ketch,
built in 1956 by Charlie Crowley to a design by Norman Wright.
Guests are invited to cruise on a 60ft fully restored classic
wooden Japanese pearling lugger. Don’t be a tourist, become
part of the crew and sail on a movie star.
Experience the sailing of ‘days-gone-by’ and discover the uninhibited
islands of the Whitsundays on this 4-day / 3-night journey.
Feel the nostalgia of a bygone era in small numbers – up to
8 guests maximum.
Departs Wednesdays.
The skipper “Sparrow” has spent most of his life at sea and
is a fully qualified traditional wooden boat builder. Ise Pearl
was restored to near perfection, regardless of time, money or
effort as “Sparrow’s” own boat. Everything on Ise Pearl was
skilfully crafted to the classic beauty of a bygone era in Australian
Maritime History.
The beautiful lines of Ise Pearl have not escaped the eye of
movie producers both in Australia and overseas. She featured
as the main boat in the Warner Bros. production of “Tales of
the South Seas” which was filmed in the Whitsunday Islands.
Accommodation is in single bunks throughout the open plan layout.
Included in the trip are all meals, blankets and linen, snorkelling
equipment and tuition. Quite an experience.
