Russ readies CHURCHILL for the day.
Still early morning. In before 7am to avoid the road
closures. |
It's getting congested out here. |
Already the crowd starts to look around.
With the NRMA Motorfest next to us at Cook and Phillip Park we
get a lot of early on lookers. |
Allan Pew tip toeing around the pond.
The closest he'll get to a bath in a while! Only kidding. |
Camp gets set up |
Craig with his little ship, HMAS HAWKESBURY
a HUON Class mine hunter. |
The fleet gathers for the day. |
You can just about walk from one side of
the pond to the other without getting wet. Great turn out
of ships. |
HAWKESBURY on the plane. I think it's
a little fast Craig! |
USS WINSTON S. CHURCHILL at anchor.
She is about the largest model that can successfully negotiate
the narrow pond. |
Great photo of three Leander Class
derivatives. HMCS ANNAPOLIS, HMAS PARRAMATTA (III) and HMS
CLEOPATRA. |
Some of the smaller models that can anchor
in the fountain area where the larger ones are kept outside
Bit like a sharknet! |
Some of the fleet |
"Walkies"! Ron Rosenberg takes his
HMAS WARRAMUNGA for a walk. |
The three wise monkey's?
I think not! Sitting back and relaxing in the heat of the
day. |
Geoff
has an unfortunate incident with his new Submarine, sorry, Manly
ferry "Curl Curl" when a gust of wind got the better of her.
|
Fortunately no major damage. Only a bit damp. |
No worse for wear after she is drained out. |
|
|
Good lookin' rooster! I think the
Anchor necklace is a bit much though! |
