Which docks is it? I work security sometimes at Patricks Maritime at Hamilton, or is it Fisherman Island?

I was working there last night, from memory I think I saw only 1 AW11. Gun-metal grey, or a grey-blue? I think. If it is Patricks bringing it in, it would be the Hamilton wharf, Fish Is is just containers and shit.

if it's Hamilton, then just get a taxi - is only a few suburbs away. Fisherman's Island is over the river.

this site will help find public transport:
http://www.transinfo.qld.gov.au/

use whereis.com.au to generate streetmaps of both airport & wharf so the taxi driver doesn't go via the gold coast.

For anyone to be able to make themselves available [we all are a helpful bunch] we would need a time slot as we have to work to support our HABIT. I am free 10.30am to 2.30 pm for example.
Cheers.Pete. Smile

Wharf: Maritime No. 1 (Dolphin Berth)
Wharf owner: Patrick
Wharf operator: Patrick General Stevedoring


yup look slike patrick.

how far cab wise is it from the airport to there ? im assuming it woul dbe pick up from there as i imagine customs would clear it and not shuffle them around.


the best flight it looks like i can get would be landing in brisbane around 10am local time.

cheers guys ill get back to you in a day once i work out the final arrangements Smile

i'd suggest contacting them first - would be kind of frustrating to fly up here only to find out they wont release the car (or that customs is shut for the weekends)

They're at:
McArthur Av, Hamilton 4007
(07) 3868 9591

map:http://www.whereis.com.au:80/whereis/mapping/geoco deAddress.do?streetNumber=&streetName=MacArthu r+Ave&poiType=&suburb=Hamilton&state=Q ueensland&x=35&y=11

open the URL, zoom out about 4 levels and you'll see that the airport is about 2 suburbs away to the north-east- cab would be 10-15 depending on traffic.

yeah im just waiting on an firm eta on when customs will release the car. it should be tue-wed ish but im waiting to book until i have a firm date.

having looked at the maps a bit better i figure it shouldnt be too far so a simple cab ride should do it. i just didnt want to get there hop in a cab and find out it was an hour away Razz
