The Margaret Pearl Adventure- Part 3, A Mecahnical Service & meet the crew.

Many of you would know of Jim Woods and his magnificently restored Cray Boat The MARGARET PEARL. Next year Jim is planning a serious adventure with his Tasmanian vessel, attending the Australian Wooden Boat Festival in Hobart and then taking her north, up the full length of the East Coast of Australia and on to explore the remote islands of the Louisiade Archipelago in eastern Papua New Guinea.

Jim has kindly offered to take us with him on the journey, by producing a series of short reels explaining the concept, the preparation and hopefully the execution of what should be an memorable adventure.

In Part Three Jim takes the boat from St Kilda to Queenscliff for its annual mechanical service, he introduces us to some of the crew for the adventure and shows us one of Port Phillip’s famous dolphin pods.

Let us know what you think in the comments below, and also the elements of the journey you want to hear more about!
