G'day Euan,

It looks like a good time was had by all. There is a tourism operator who runs a Vietnam era LARC on tours in the ocean around Agnes Waters and The Town of 1770 which is not far from me. He has one LARC that takes out tourists and another in his yard that has a crane on the back of it. http://www.1770larctours.com.au

I don't have any pictures of the crane LARC - not yet.

Kind Regards
Lionel

Hi Guys

Well the weekend was a blast had a heap of fun and learnt an incredle amount.

At the very end had a Lady come up and ask if her father could have a ride, as he had been in the Army, so of coarse back in we went. He was actually a Dukw driver and had participate in a landing with five other Dukws with troops on board in PNG, so that certainly made the weekend

Thanks for putting up the photos Euan.

We hope to go out again Australia Day, and then the weekend afterwards, so if you are about drop in, the next swim will be at Corowa if all the plans go ahead.

Tim
