A beat up old building IIRC.

Yeah pretty rough but a beautiful spot. One of the employees was all liquored up summer of 2019 and took an axe to the joint during the rush destroying a good chunk of the interior. Perhaps this will give the owners a kick start to sort it out.

Financial combustion?

The Coast Reporter article embodies everything there is to love and wonder at about life on the Sunshine Coast. Suspicious fires, strange behaviour, seaside pubs, community support, knob-and-tube wiring...

Aww tough loss. Mrs and I liked to lunch there after a boat trip to Madeira Park for groceries. Not many waterfront pubs anymore on that stretch of the coast. Jolly Roger closed. Wakefield lost to developers. Backeddy at Egmont is good but rather a long way for just lunch.

Some good news, however. The Salmon Point pub and restaurant is being rebuilt.
