The Tacoma is Australia's first purpose built TUNA fishing boat and is run by a group of volunteers to bring to the public a floating museum that has a wonderful history, that they want to share. The Tacoma is a non profit organisation which welcomes "members" to join and participate in the restoration and OR support of this historic vessel.

Remote Islands and dolphins under the bow are just a part of a Tacoma expedition. The waters around Neptune Islands have been productive for us the past few seasons, imagine being posted there as a lighthouse keeper back in the day. We still have a few spots on our February 2027 mens trips and are taking wait list on the women's trips. Reach out to our booking manager PJ if an experience like this floats your boat.

Another busy Friday on board Tacoma. Fed our ships carpenter repairing the radio battery box. Greg our chief engineer refixing steering lines and Dion chipping rust. We blew the kettle and got a new one, all decided that was today’s most important job. Always a job on Friday morning for anyone who drops down to help out
