18.11 Matt WWOOFing: Swan Bay
We spent the day on the Bellarine Peninsular, where Matt was WWOOFing (Willing Workers On Organic Farms) just outside Queenscliff. The only task that day was to bring in three fishing boats...
The first boat to the trailer. Had a small issue with getting the engine to lock in position while it was running. There was also a strong wind blowing too, which blew the boat back towards the pier!
So with the waders on, Matt jumps in to man-handle the boat towards the trailer, with the wind blowing, and Matt slowly sinking into the mud of the bay!
Finally the boat is winched onto the trailer!
It's at this point that a digital camera & mobile phone are produced from the pockets! Unfortunately they didn't work again. If this ever happens to you, apparently (a web search revealed) you should rinse the goods down immediately with distilled water and let them dry out slowly.
The other two boats were much easier! The trama of first obviously took its toll!
