Makepeace Island Brig

We were having coffee at Café Vin Cino on the Noosa River, looking out at the rain, when this Brig arrived to collect someone from Noosa Marina.

Makepeace Island is Richard Branson’s Australian resort hideaway on the Noosa River in Queensland. (Since 2003, when it was bought by Brett Godfrey, former CEO of Virgin Australia).

The island was named after former owner, Hannah Makepeace, who inherited it from Charles Nicholas in the 1900s.

It is up river from Noosa Harbour, and the Brig is used as an Island transfer boat.
