Just 7mm here this morning.

Solar dave the dickhead has always taken his boat out each and every day, why it was left there and why he was there
in the middle of the night is anybody's guess.
The PUBLIC wharf was built by prisoners up at Lotas and was for the community, the commercial vessels should not
be using it as a mooring and should only be on it for loading or unloading passengers, but they think they own it
and make it hard for people to fish or use for private boats.
Go fund Me's for operators like this are just a scam as far as I'm concerned. AS a commercial operator they have
to be insured, if they are under insured it's his problem. He can put as many sob stories on facebag as he likes
it is a con..
It is also looking like the ferry was not secured to it's moorings. More negligence..
It was eazy to see we were in for a flood, we had had 170mm during the day and no sign of it stopping, the gauges
were on the way up.
Nothing done yesterday, now because it is owned by council everything is to dangerous, they have closed off the
areas both sides of the river so people can't go and see what they are not doing :) ..
In the past when it was private someone would of been sleeping on the ferry and they would of had it moving again
with a couple of big reef boats or a few tinnys.
Last night 2 large boats were trucked up from south so they can recover it, so it is a salvage crew to do the job.
Could of put a cable on it and pulled it with a loader. But it's all red tape and self important fwits holding up
what could of been done.

Anyway I'm sitting back , baking hot cross buns and other good foods and laughing at the whole situation..

Yeah Scott could of been interesting if it dropped out in a creek crossing :) :)

Kathrine is having a big flood, was a shame to see their levee go over yesterday.

What's in store for the rest of the month?


Cheers
