Mother Ship Charters
Aurukun is located on the junction of 3 pristine rivers, making it an ideal location for unique fishing adventures. The Archer, the Ward and the Watson Rivers are on the doorstep, as are the beaches and reefs outside the mouth of the system. Just to the south are the Kirk and the Love Rivers each offering unique fishing options. These can now be accessed from the comfort of the MV Pikkuw. Hyperspace Sportfishing has created a superb fishing tour that cruises a pristine tropical wetland river system which is virtually un-fished.
Vessel
The Pikkuw (which is the Wik Munkan language name for “salt-water crocodile”) is a spacious, modern, comfortable, custom built vessel with accommodation for up to 8 passengers. Designed specifically for the waterways around Aurukun, this air-conditioned mother-ship will ensure guests have a relaxing and safe stay. 
The Pikkuw is outfitted with the latest equipment and technology to help make your stay more comfortable.With up to date communication and safety equipment, including Satellite/CDMA phones, all boats are equipped with a VHF radio for communication between the three tenders and mother-ship. Running these tenders with 60hp 4-stroke engines means you get to spots quickly, with minimal fuel needed to access some truly remote areas.
With a never ending array of fishing spots to explore, the Pikkuw has the enormous benefit of utilising the skills and knowledge of the traditional owners of these parts. Isolated lagoons and billabongs, the upper reaches of the Ward, Watson, Archer and Small Archer Rivers are but a few of these exciting locations.
From bluewater and reef areas across vast flats and up into large river systems this area is a must do for anglers seeking some of the best bluewater and Barramundi fishing available in Northern Australia. Some of these tiny creeks have never ever seen a lure or fly! Join us for some unforgettable Barramundi and sportfishing action in the Archer River area of Cape York in northern Australia.
