wow - looks like fun - beautiful shot!!

3-storey paddle steamer in the mid 1970s and I think the
oil prices in the early 70s were very high .. Was it a normal
passenger steamer or strictly for tourists ? .. Very interesting
to see such landscape then (I've never been to Australia) ..
Thanks for sharing.

It was originally a wood burning steam driven river transport/trading vessel during the early 1900's but by the 70's it carried tourists only ...... as it still does today. We used to water ski at this site during the 70's but all activity would cease as the Coonawarra passed by.

Thanks for such interesting info, especially water
skiiing there during your 30-yr-younger days !

Great shot and a wonderful story to go with it!
