🌊25 YEARS OF LARCing – BUILT TO LAST🌊

2019 marks an extraordinary milestone for 1770 LARC! tours, as they celebrate 25 years of LARCing around.  Since they first began operating in May 1994 the iconic pink LARCS have been transporting guests from the Town of 1770 to explore the Lightstation of Bustard Head.   

Visionary Des Mergard, wife Betty and family, wanted to share the beauty and isolation of Bustard Head Light Station with visitors. However, with challenging terrain and ever-changing sea conditions, there was only one type of craft that was fit for the job, and Des knew where to find it. All the way from a car yard in Rockhampton already dressed in pink, Sir Joseph Banks joined the family.
