RIB Heaven 2

Views of PDQ at anchor off Tangalooma Wrecks. Popular dive / snorkel site in Moreton Bay. About 40 min run from berth in Manly QLD. Its a tough life but somebody has to do it. Used to think Solent was nice - before I emigrated.

Dive ladder

As requested'
Hope these help- pretty simple and effective. Could ideally be 1 rung longer for older people.
Clips hold it against splash well wall when not in use.

Well I'm very happy for you...

It'd blowing 90 kph here tonight and snowing sideways. We got 20cm today and another 20 - 30 cm possible over night.

My boat was tucked in for the winter yesterday, so I guess I got the most out of the season...

Suffering in 32 degress!

Just had a nice run in PDQ yesterday and we were shivering a bit only 32. Ha HA centigrade not farenheit. Bet your boats look pretty covered in snow. Thinking of you all rugged up. Still do miss an open fire with a few crackling logs. Hey hun stick another prawn on the barbie!
Its a tough life but someone has to do it.
Heres to a successful and safe year ribbing - whereever you might be
Regards
Mark
ps pics taken by my daughter - couldnt get camera off her.
