    The three gents were all fine, a few scrapes but thats it. The fourby that rolled was a hilux (suprise) that popped a rear tyre on some fast dirt. The trailer was a Kimberly Kamper type and it was fine, hardly a scratch on it. If i had $25,000 floating around i would buy one of em. The hilux looked pretty second hand and it had popped out its rear shocks. We put the spare on for em and winched the trailer back over (it was on its side) then once it was all tidied up they slowly crabbed their way to Escott Station about a dozen kilometres away for a well earned beer.
    The boat had never even been in the water and was brand new. Now its flat and dog food cans.
    cheers
    Mick
