Should make an Artificial Reef with this boat

[craigie]

Went for a run down the Brisbane River on Saturday with the Diggi Camera on board. Plan was to get a couple of action shots of the Cyclone, but also wanted to get a couple of snaps of the "HMAS BRISBANE" before they cart her away and scuttle her on the Sunnie Coast.

If you get the chance, go for a run down to Colmslie and check it out. It's tied up a couple of hundred metres upstream from the Ramp

Drive right up to the Bow and look up, you'll then know how brainless some of those Green Peace dudes are :o :o :o.

Cheers Craigie

p.s will post the pics when I get them re-sized

No worries Jaybee, it's definitely worth a ganda, pity it's on the inside of the berth and not the outside where you could see it's full flank and size.

Cheers
Craigie.

Sorry mate, didn't make any mental notes of Plimsal lines etc.

[jaybee]

no worries, just think it would be a damn shame to knock off the tower, the little fishes should love to swim in and around it.lol

Hey craigie, didn't you that green peace dudes have a death wish! They think it's a form of martyrdom!! Oh well, just adds to the artifical reef - few extra bits plus berley!!

What a fishing boat, if all the Ausfish members put in 10 bucks each do you reckon they would sell her to use ;D ;D
Dose anybody know where it is going to be sunk, a bit more info than sunshine coast.

[jaybee]

spiro i posted that info that i gathered from a dive site a few weeks ago, i am wondering while she is sitting in the river, if there are any squire under her now. :-X
cheers
Joe
