We only had about 25 pushes, 3 spins out of the river and one trip into the bush. Good fun.

Found a couple of creeks that we had to push to get into... plenty of small channels some narrower than the boat. Rob will have some pics.

Great fun, a good turn out of boats (Polarkiwi, RGV, Cookie, Clark,TonyT,Tony737 & a J31) lots of places to explore.

I had one small push after we ran out of water & I had to take a shortcut back to some flow? ;) motor stopped as we slid back into the river so nothing there when I went to get back on it so Gouldy & I gently ran aground on the other side.? ;D ;D ;D I blame the nav!! Cookie ran aground following us thru it as well!
Tinny jet was off playing in the shrubbery. Alaskan Rob is talking about building one now!!? ;D

On the way back down a couple of other boats started following me? ;) Wasn't too long before the first one was aground!!? ;D ;D ;D

To be fair I was in the Nav seat at the time - and I had only just finished saying to my first time driver to follow that blue boat in front and you'll be right....when we rounded the corner to face dry land and a wall of blue and silver alloy in front of us !!!!!

What was more embarrassing was finding ourselves out of water on the way back down some side braids and facing a ten minute push when a little yellow dingy comes flying back up the same channel gives me a high five as he passes us in ankle deep puddle and boats on up the virtually dry trickle !!! Gotta get me one of those machines if only for the grin factor !!? ;D? ;D? ;D
