Cruising in the Okwata South Coast NSW
Posted: Wed May 05, 2010 4:59 am
After finishing the Occy, I had to go up to Sydney for some family commitments. Gee it makes you feel old when you are celebrating your grandkids 18th birthdays.
Anyway when I got home I couldnt wait to get out on the briny. These pictures were taken at Tuross Lakes, which is but one of our many loverly local waterways. It was an overcast day with a few showers, but even so, being out there in the occy was just great.
There was a little bit of a shower approaching the broken bridge to Deuaumba Island.
Old man Emu stopped to admire the lines of the Okwata.
I built the Okwata because I wanted a boat to explore around all of our local waterways. This boat exceeds all my expectations. It glides effortlessly through the water. It slices cleanly through any chop without any splashing or spraying. It tracks straight but turns easily by leaning left or right. I love it.
The best part of retirement is that I have all the time in the world to get out and enjoy myself paddling around in this little beauty. And thats just what I intend to do.
Cheers Roger
