We trace our history back to the Ernest Albert Fuller who first began offering cruises through the sheltered inner islands of the Bay in 1886.

THE HISTORY OF FULLERS In 1886, Albert Ernest Fuller launched the ?Undine? sailing vessel in the Bay of Islands to deliver coal supplies to the islands within the Bay. With the fitting of a motor in the early 1900s, Fuller was able to deliver the coal and essential supplies to communities as far out as Cape Brett. In 1927 Fuller acquired the ?Cream Trip? from Edmund Lane ? with the facilities on board to transport cream from the islands, and by the 1960s, the well known ?Bay Belle' started this run.
