The Irwin family were in Mooloolaba, Queensland, on Saturday to launch the whale-watching boat, Steve’s Whale One. The khaki-clad Irwins joined more than 150 guests in launching the boat as part of Australia Zoo’s expansion into whale watching.
The 130-man boat will offer 360-degree views from large observation decks. Guests can also listen to the whale songs using an underwater hydrophone, while a biologist will be on board to explain and discuss the gentle giants.
