True North - 50m North Star Cruises : The True North sets the benchmark for excellence in the adventure cruise industry in Australia. This 50m vessel is the culmination of years of experience in cruising the remote Kimberley region of Western Australia. As part owner Mark is deeply involved in the operation of the vessel. Launched by Austal in 2005 she remains a testament to the close collaboration between operator and ship yard.
