The pilot, Adam Broome, departed Durham, North Carolina heading Eastbound, in late April.  He has been joined by family and friends who make up the “Great Circle Flyers”.  N5831R touched down in Australia via Broome, Western Australia in mid-June.

It's unclear how long the Bonanza will stay at Hervey Bay and where it will depart to and when!
