Another highlight of Narrandera! Thanks again to the Carters (in particular Brenda) for leting me take Turbo Fire for a run with my Dad - Laurie. I think he now understands why I wanted a boat like Torea!

And Nool (another Nool photo, with thanks) for me you were always in the right place at the right time, except of course for the stubbie/can game!

Cheers

Very glad Chris that you had such a great time getting to know the Lewis boats - a runabout and a skiff. I heard a rumour that Torea could wind up as a skiff, Chris. Could that happen?

Nice idea Bob, but I have room for another boat, so the next one will be a skiff!

Next is some photos of the trip from Tassie to the Yarra, joined by Laurie Chivers, Bruce Sault and later Alan Price for the Yarra Cruise.
