After nine months of being placed in mothballs, the team at Pure Adrenalin are delighted to announce that Pure Adrenalin is back and will be remaining in Queensland as Brisbane's Premier Charter Vessel.
New owners Bevan and Jodie Slattery of Great Latitude Pty Ltd said "we are incredibly excited and honoured to have purchased Pure Adrenalin and to be keeping her in Queensland." Mr Slattery added " We have personally chartered this vessel on numerous occasions and when approached by long-time Captain Brett Lakey about the possible purchase, Jodie and I knew this was an investment that we both wanted to make."
Remarkably Pure Adrenalin was almost sold to the Papua New Guinea Government as a border patrol vessel. "When I heard Pure Adrenalin was destined to be a border patrol vessel in PNG I was heartbroken and left thinking all the painstaking effort and attention to detail afforded over the past 8 years was about to be undone." said Captain Brett Lakey. "Fortunately that deal stumbled at the final hurdle and Bevan and Jodie were able to secure her."
There will be no time to rest for the Pure Adrenalin team as PA has already secured its first charter for Riverfire and after that there are plans for an extensive maintenance and upgrade program getting the vessel back to its best for the Christmas charter season.
