Date Posted: 14/01/08 7:14am In reply to: Des taff Jenkins 's message, "Shipping out" on 6/01/08 6:33am Hi Dave. I left the coast in 64, I missed my wife and two little ones to much. There were a lot of characters on the coast, so many seamen jumping then doing a ring bolt for Aus then coming back in. There was a big turnover of seamen, as a lot used to get a job on the wharfs, or in the rigging lofts, I think half the riggers at the Kawarau pulp and paper mills where MN. Do you remember the little sailing skiffs that brought the apples up from Tassie? Fond memories Dave. Cheers Des [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
