2015 Australian (Hobart) Wooden Boat Festival
photos ex Simon Smith & Baden Pascoe
Several CYA members crossed the ditch for the bi-annual wooden boat festival in Tasmania. A group transported the kiwi skiff ‘wee’ Tawera over to take part in the rowing section of the regatta & I understand did us proud with a win.
Rumour has it that Neil Chalmers was cruising the docks & hopefully took the Box Brownie with him.
Simon Smith sent in the gallery of boating photos below + a couple of stunning scenery shots, love the one of Hobart town bathed in sunshine.
This event is on my bucket list. Enjoy 🙂

Glad to see the locals gave your correspondent a lemonade AH, wouldn’t want him to dehydrate with the air travel.

Actually it was my brother with whom I stayed who was the operator. The shots do have great clarity and the camera was very light to handle too.
