MYSTERY PHOTO
After a full month on the slip at Redland
City Marina, Commodore Lyle’s glossy
“Silhouette” was back home; two days
later he headed north with son Luke in the
4WD, bound for the northern tip of OZ
on a camping adventure …We’ll await the
stories on that subject when he returns.
Currently heading back south as this
eNews is published, and we understand
he can’t wait to get back aboard
the boat!
Acclaimed Moreton Bay and Port of Brisbane historian
Peter Ludlow has some news – and a special offer
– for LSC Members. We understand that Boolarong
Press will be reprinting a number of Peter’s classic
collections of stories about the events and characters
of ‘our Bay’ with publication due later this year.
Meantime, Peter has a limited number of copies of his
final, 150pp compendium “Moreton Bay reflections”
av opy. Contact Peter by email
at
gsite to find out
m
Let us know if you’d like your Club to stock
Peter’s work and we’ll make some enquiries!
Member Greg Daley currently has
his “Solitaire” on the slip at Gold
Coast City Marina. She’s looking
great with a new paint job, and
new stainless davits added …
but not sure about the fibreglass
‘Riviera-style’ duckboard fitted to
the steel transom, Greg – it took a
few rotations of the image to work
out which way is up (although we
hear that Cheryl loves the additions,
so all is obviously well on that
front)!
