By 2019, Brisbane’s Bay and Islands had become an increasingly popular destination for visitors. Recognising the demand for adventure experiences in the region, Sharpey, alongside co-founders Brad Ross and Anthony Stanton, developed a fleet of four high-speed vessels to deliver adventure day trips from Brisbane to the Moreton Bay Islands.

Designed to captivate international tourists, these adventures combined thrilling outdoor activities with wildlife encounters, offering guests the chance to see kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, dugongs, sea turtles, dolphins, kookaburras, and many more native species in their natural habitats.

 

Towards the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, Sharpey and Brad decided to pass the business on to their investors, allowing them to focus on the recovery and growth of their other tourism ventures.
