They be down-under paid and over here. Look, I cannot legally run a blue flagged yacht (and I applied for an Australian work visa/was denighed) downunder yet these blokes hop on an airliner with a visitor's visa and jump US flagged yachts for less than American captains have work long and hard for (I have 30 years in the business). If Arrrrstralia is such a great place, then talk your lads into staying home and leave my flagged vessels alone! Let's know forget where the orginaly settlers to Australia come from and why.
