G'day Folks
Good pics of the Selkirk Settler, I remember watching an Ampol Tanker (I think) trying to enter Sydney Harbour in a similar storm in the late 60's, was watching from North Head, and she was taking green water back to the bridgethey took her out to sea and brought her back in at full speed, ever seen a 40,000 ton loaded tanker "Surf" there were 4 tugs waiting inside the heads to pass lines to her to keep her from broaching, took about an hour to get her in far enough to slow and settle down, we had caught the last ferry to Manly that afternoon, "North Steyne" and had 3 ft of green water washing through the lower passenger deck,
they were great ferries in those days
had about 25 photos of that tanker but they and others got lost in a move in the mid 70's, also in that lot was some pics of Melbourne after Voyager sinking

I feel small...
the internet so much information so many pranksters so many gulliable people
some of my favourites are
Israeli spy satellite shooting last minute of the space shuttle and showing it blowing up over texas
the guy standing on the twin towers observation deck with the Jet just about to crash into the building
bloody hell, she is not very old by the looks of that hull....
