Day 30

This is the good ship "Talofa". We have had a lot of fun on her over the years. She is quite sad at the moment though as she has a very dirty bottom because we haven't had much time these last few months to take her out.

Thanks for the opportunity to be a part of the challenge, it has been tricky at times but fun & i've met a few Worthians as well.

Day 29

This jetty is near us at a place called Wangi Wangi. It is an Aboriginal name meaning place of many night owls. We take our boat here to fill up with water & wash it down.

Day 28


These boats are on a lake north of us. They are used to collect the oysters from the leases in the lake.

Day 27

Bunting is very popular to scare the birds off the boats. In some areas it works, in others the birds enjoy sitting on it.

Day 26


This is a very familiar sight around our lake. Everyone leaves their tinnies on the bank, some tied to trees, but apart from blowing over in strong winds they are quite safe being left on the shore.

Day 25

I had to go to Sydney after work so stopped at this river & saw this strange boat.

Day 24

This old dinghy belongs to my neighbour & he uses it to get out to the little yacht on the far right.
