The conference starts at 4:00 pm in the Wistari Conference room and is followed by a mixer on the Wistari Terrace.
It finishes in the morning of July 12, when the catamaran returns to Gladstone just after an early lunch at ca 12 noon for arrival in Gladstone between 2 and 3 pm.

Catching flights before 5 pm is possible, but unforeseen weather can cause delay. A 20-seater bus from the marina to the airport has been organized for the 20 people who indicated to me that they needed to catch flights on the Saturday afternoon. If any further people need tansportation, please take a Taxi or Uber, or wait for the bus to come back for a second run. The bus is operated by a third party, which charges a fare of AUD 10 per person, payable by individuals. It is a 9 km or 12-15 min ride.

There are several good, convenient and low cost hotels/motels in Gladstone close to the marina.
Secure parking at Gladstone marina can be arranged via Compleat Angler (07 4972 7283).
