Santa on the Water 

It’s Christmas on the Island

5pm Sunday 23 December 2018

Report & Photo Gallery below...

Santa will be back on the water this Sunday 23 December, 

motoring around the canals and waters surrounding St Huberts Island. 

Along with some of his Helpers and the Brisbane Water Brass Band, Santa will board “Doctors Orders” skippered by Rod Wenzel and aided by various minions. 

The trip begins at about 5 pm from Marina Cove. Any boats can join the flotilla either in Marina Cove before 5pm, or anywhere around the path of Santa. 

Santa will take his maritime sleigh clockwise around the Island to Sandy Cove/Sandy Inlet, entering all canals then turning back to Marina Cove.

There are many vantage points if you choose not to take your boat out to watch him motor past.

Once again, St Huberts Island thanks “Doctors Orders” for transporting Santa and his sundry, motley crew of Elves about the canals of the Island in the lead-up to this Christmas. Captain Rod Wenzel ably drove the boat under instructions from navigator (and better half) Virginia, all to the Christmas tunes from the Brisbane Water Brass Band.
