Hi
A follow up to my previous email an interesting page is
http://www.sunraysia.vic.edu.au/riverboats/murray/Hero.html P.S. Hero which
is under restoration here, I saw the hulk when it was raised from the river
bed in 1998 and I thought it was a no go project but after seeing refloated
this it is a marvellous sight to see.
The shipwright skills on building these boats are not lost, as the Port of
Echuca has apprentice shipwrights in training.
