Altum, businesses form association to vouch for GKI resort


Altum Property Group and Capricorn Coast businesses last month formed an association to advocate the development of Altum’s planned resort on Great Keppel Island.
The GKI Progress Association Inc.’s stated aims are to increase awareness of the resort project, to provide stakeholders a forum to discuss it, and to speak with all levels of government about their island investments.
The group’s secretary is Altum’s revitalisation project general manager Leigh McCready.
Its president is Ross O’Reilly and its treasurer is Gerry Christie, both of whom are also on the association’s committee, which consists of those who signed an open letter drafted by Ms McCready in September last year.

Fine weather last weekend attracted many boaties and fishers to the water alongside the Coast Guard.
On Saturday, the Yeppoon crew received a call for help at 12.40pm from a vessel with motor problems at Corroboree Island, near North Keppel Island.
Yeppoon Rescue One departed Rosslyn Bay Harbour and towed the vessel back to Rosslyn Bay Harbour, arriving at 2.15pm.
Crew members were woken at 3.45am on Sunday by a call for assistance from a flybridge cruiser west of Corroboree Island.
As the boat was in no danger, the owner was asked to call back at daylight. The call was received at 5.50am as soon as the radio room opened for business. Yeppoon Rescue One took the boat in tow, returning to harbour at 7.06am.

ALTHOUGH strong winds kept most boaties at home, Central Queensland Coast Guards were hard at work last week.
Below is a diary of their significant tasks.
Monday
On Monday, an empty aluminium boat floating off Keppel Sands was the trigger for a search for a possible missing occupant.
At 3.58pm Keppel Sands Coast Guard was contacted by Yeppoon Coast Guard, advising that a member of the public had reported a vessel drifting fast in the strong winds.
The vessel appeared to have come from Cooroman Creek and was drifting across the front of Keppel Sands. There was no sign of an occupant.
