Mick
Mick, the mascot of Moonraker, has the life all dogs aspire
to. He belongs to Torie and is extremely well fed. Mick has
become known as the Moonraker Dolphin spotter, and lives up
to his name. He is present on every cruise, by his choice
only, and has been on many TV shows such as Coxy's Big Break,
Rex Hunt's Fishing Adventures, Post Cards and Getaway. I suppose
you could say he is the star of the show.
