SWAN RIVER CRABZ

BIG BLUEZ

G'day All,
                 With last weex disater back in Yot land i took sum thyme out to re visit the Swan River.
Kind of a "get back to grass roote fishing"!
Well to say the trip waz a suxcess wood B an understatemint!
We bagged out in 6 pullz of our traps. Itz alwayz a good syne when the first pot you pull haz a good sized crab. Back home in a couple of hourz with the gear cleaned and packed, boat washed and stored and a brace of cooked blue manna'z on the table.
Life can be so aweful sumthymez!
My priority task while I'm here, waz 2 tile Mumz Alfresco area.
Task complete!
I got the job finished with a little help from Hanni, turnz out he waz in Perth also while we didn't get to fish we managed a few hours together pouring black grout into the freshly layed tilez.Black grout on green tilez.
WOW JOB DONE!
A prick of a job but infin8ly worth it when the final resultz are released to scrutiny. Yes I know my spelling sux but I also know, itz on porpose (little dolfin) to amuse my Mum who being a teacher will notice every grammatical error.
It iz in truth that I wouldn't be here without Mum! A truly obvious statement.
I must now return to the Yot and organise the repairs. It seems the boat is damaged so that the only way to sort it iz if I fly back to Groote and sort the repairs.
The Yot will probably need 2B towed to Darwin or Gove as both rudderz are damaged (no steering) and 1 motor has been under water.
Still I won't know just how much damage haz occurred until I can get back to the yot.
Once repairs are underway I'll return to Perth to help look after Mum.




OH MR HART! What a mess!....

    Looks like a pretty good haul of swimmers!! I might have to get the kayak out and see if I can catch a few. might need some pointers on the best location to put down a drop. Got 2 nets so might take a while to get a decent feed. Hope everything goes well on your return to the submarine. Looks like its going to be a fairly large task to refloat, relocate and then repair the stricken vessel. perfect time to address some of the desired changes to functionality while your at it. Only time will tell what the damage and repairs will truly bring but I am sure with your experience garnered in Townsville you will have it back together and better than before in no time. Anyway Cheers for now
