Coral Spawning 2011 - Deep Sea Divers Den - Cairns - Great Barrier Reef
In 1981, Australian researchers on the Great Barrier Reef stumbled across an amazing natural phenomenon. All of a sudden, millions of tiny cells began spewing out of the living corals. They poured into the water column like champagne bubbles, floating to the surface and forming a thick, pink 'slick'.
The researchers had witnessed coral spawning.

Turtle Rehabilitation Centre Cairns Australia
Turtles are hurt in the wild by ghost fishing nets, pollution, hunting from various groups and they also suffer generic disorders where air can get locked under there shell and they float on the surface and cant dive. The Turtle Rehabilitation Center in Cairns Australia helps these injured turtles back to health to then release them back into the wild. Help the organization and donate some dollars to help pay for medicine and x-ray scans, healthy water supply and food. Donate here -

Palm Cove - Top Beaches in Cairns
Palm Cove is one of Cairns' more beautiful beaches. Even though today was a little windy, the sun lit up the sand and allowed us to capture it's glow.
I also have a blog and more pictures of this over at:
I'd really recommend Palm Cove to anyone. A lot of Japanese have come to realize the beauty which is the Palm Cove, so come check it out!
PS: The song is a cover I did of World's Apart. Loved the song so I decided to sing it and put it on this video. :)
And as always, take care!

rX-Tank Suction Side Cleaner is Truly Amazing! : Australian Market Only
The Kreepy Krauly Australia rX-Tank is a very unique suction side cleaner and one that should dominate the Australian cleaner market. It is currently only available in Australia and not sold outside of that market. If you live in Australia this is the cleaner for you.
The rX-Tank is the first cleaner with Robotic X-Over™ (crossover) technology – The intelligence of a robotic cleaner with the convenience of a suction cleaner. The rX stands for robotic crossover and provides mobility, strength and suction power never seen before in a cleaner and it also works great with Variable Speed pumps.
The odd plastic part on top actually has a unique function. The state-of-the-art Halo Pump Protection is an ingenious way to prevent the rX-Tank from climbing out of the pool and sucking air. Unlike other suction cleaners that are designed to climb the pool walls, the rX-Tank won’t come out and suck air which could potentially damage your pump and shut your filtration system down. It is an odd feature but it serves a vital task.
The rX-Tank is made in Australia and here are some of the great features noted by the manufacturer:
POWER STEERING HALO
Advanced power steering delivers unbeatable wall traction for multi-angle wall cleaning.
DUAL DRIVE NAVIGATION
X-NavTM technology with a dual drive coverage system that independently navigates rX-Tank in any direction across the floor and wall. It intelligently creates a cleaning path for your pool and effortlessly cleans it for you.
X-TREME CLEAN POWER BRUSHES
Dual hydraulic power brushes agitate and lift dirt and debris, for an unmatchable clean.
HALO PUMP PROTECTION
The halo is a guardian angel for your pool pump, ensuring your cleaner releases off the pool wall preventing air from entering your system.
FULLY-AUTOMATIC
Plug and play, just empty your skimmer basket. no need for manual lifting or power cords. A truly automatic solution.
TURBO CLEANING CYCLE
Tough, even though sand. See the difference in 30 minutes, visit kreepykrauly.com.au.
TRUSTED TECHNOLOGY
The state of the art X-NavTM coverage technology reflects Kreepy Krauly’s 40 plus years of pool cleaning expertise.
ROBUST AND RELIABLE
With no delicate electronics that can fail, it’s tank tough! The geared system delivers the methodical coverage of a robotic cleaner, with the robustness of a suction cleaner.
The heart of this robotic suction cleaner is a powerful turbine. It maximizes your pool’s suction to drive the cleaners tracks, gearing system, and power brushes to quietly and efficiently clean your pool’s surface. It navigates the tightest of corners moving freely around obstacles to give your pool and unbeatable coverage.
HOW IT STEERS
X-Nav™ technology with a dual drive coverage system independently navigates rX-Tank in any direction across the floor and wall. It intelligently creates a cleaning path for your pool and effortlessly cleans it for you. With its advanced power steering halo, it allows the cleaner unbeatable wall traction for multi-angle wall cleaning.
HOW IT CLEANS
rX-Tank cleans your pool daily with your normal filter cycle by utilizing its X-Treme Clean Power Bushes to lift dirt and debris to Vortex Vacuum your pool surface. As the cleaner moves around your pool daily it assists in circulating water from different areas of your pool through your purpose-built filtration and sanitation system to reduce dead spots in your pool. Leaves are picked up and pulled through the straight-through turbine heart of the cleaner, direct to your skimmer box for hassle-free cleaning. The Vortex Vacuum aids in the pick up of heavier debris such as sand and grit, that can be left by other cleaners. The Smart-Skim or Auto Skim uses the excess vacuum to draw water into your skimmer box to help reduce floating debris.
THE X-TREME FLEX HOSE
To achieve coverage of your pool, the X-Treme Flex hose provides the freedom your cleaner needs to navigate your pool. Its unique design rests just below the water surface due to its natural buoyancy.

SNUBA DIVING and Hot Air Ballooning
Floating above the ground in a hot air balloon was an awesome way to start the day. After hot air ballooning we were shuttled back to the harbour where we boarded the boat to Fitzroy Island.
On Fitzroy Island we experienced SNUBA Diving for the first time ever, which is like Scuba diving but your tank is in a small floating device above the surface.
We also ventured on a glass bottom boat around the bay, which showed interesting coral and other marine life.

Super Yacht FIRE Super Rich Passengers Crew Escape Luxury Yacht Sinks in High Seas
Super Yacht FIRE Super Rich Passengers Crew Escape Luxury Yacht Sinks in High Seas. On the final day of a dream holiday guests aboard a luxury superyacht sailing off Queensland were jolted awake by crew yelling fire, fire, fire. Eight passengers and eight crew were aboard the 41 metre superyacht Seafaris when it caught fire and exploded before sinking off Cape Tribulation, north of Cairns, about 6am (AEST) on Thursday.
An older passenger said the guests were asleep when the alarm was raised.One of the crew knocked on the door and said `fire, fire, fire', the man told reporters in Cairns. We just got organised and got in the raft in the water. The group boarded life rafts and were rescued by a passing container ship that responded to a distress call. The flaming superyacht Seafaris. They were then transferred to two smaller boats before being taken to the Cairns marina about noon.
The captain of the container ship says he heard at least two explosions on the yacht, which burnt for about two hours before sinking. A Cairns coastguard radio operator says everything happened so fast that lifeguards weren't able to reach the Seafaris. It all happened that bloody quick, he told AAP.
We heard about it on the wireless and about 30 seconds later it had sunk. No one on board was seriously hurt, although two passengers were checked by paramedics. One of the superyachts Seafari offers for charter. (Seafari) Harbour pilot Glen Alitt, who brought the survivors into Cairns, said none of the survivors were very talkative.
I think they're all in a bit of shock, he said. They're really lucky the weather conditions are really good. The McCloy Group, who own the vessel, released a statement saying the fire started in the yacht's engine room. Jeff McCloy was expected to meet with the captain, crew and guests in Cairns on Thursday. A Transport and Main Roads spokesman said work to salvage the boat would begin later this week and an investigation would be carried out. Australian Maritime Safety Authority officers have collected debris from the boat and blasted a light sheen of diesel coming from the wreckage with fire hoses.
The Seafaris, which costs about $120,000 a week to hire, was used for luxury charters for high end tourists along the Queensland coast. The yacht was equipped with a gym, library, cinema, spa, cocktail bar and had five passenger cabins.
