This video was taken by an onlooker 4 weeks ago while I was on crew at VMR Vicky Point.

We were kept very busy that day helping boaties in.... I am the very wet one on the end of the rope lol.

ha that aint nothing :). When I was 19 I rowed across to coochie in the 74 flood. There was surf then. I got swept to the point where I landed and then walked the boat around to the jetty.

They were going out, I don't recall if they came back in tho as I was really busy.

Hahahaha I did see some debris washed up on the beach this morning .... ;D

Some people are so frustratingly stupid. This is one example (skipper and crew).

Good on you guys for helping people at the ramp though! Very kind of you.
