Nice one. Good luck, Hopefully everything goes according to plan. :cool:
 
Love the name and when i 1st read you had property on DHI, i was blown away and everytime i watch content featuring it, i often think about how lucky you are to have secured some land in one of the most inhospitable and harshest places in Australia. Bottle Bay in Francois Peron is one of my favourite places on earth but Ningaloo has my heart so i don't visit Shark Bay as much as i used to.

Are you planning on posting the build?

Do you get free barge access or do you have to pay for that each time? Going to have no shortage of tradies who like 4wding and fishing who want the work!

DHI is a beautiful place. Wild and free. Amaroo is a lovely name with the perfect connotations of peace and beauty. Spent time there in the 60's and 70's as a youngster. Best fishing and diving ever!

I hope you will be spending time with me up there again once I have a roof and beds for 20 guests. The Island is for me to chill out and take time to help those who have helped me on my journey of passion. SEX EDUCATION and self-respect for all sex workers.

I had a google of these guys, they look the goods and i see they have done other work on the island.

I know whats involved to get a 4wd and some camping/fishing gear out there and further around to Steep/False enterance and it'd have to need good management to build a reliable structure on an island like DH!!

Wow having an island is already a beautiful thing so the name is a great fit.
Look forward to seeing the beautiful views, if you choose to share them of course.
