quinns beach

Gday - the kids started pissn me off this arvo so I went for a quick fish round the corner off the most northerly rock groin at quinns beach to see if I could get some herring for bait - planning on going out past direction bank off two rocks this sunday - weather permitting. I usually get friggin heaps of herring but today nothing - its weeded out bad, just got the usual sand whiting and a trumpeter so hopefully a big dhuey will take a liking to them. Anyway was surprised to see a 5 odd metre half cab boat washed up on the beach there. Its sitting on its trailer which is almost buried - does anybody know the story about it? as far as I can tell you cant get a car there to put it on its trailer in the first place - just seems real odd - cheers dave

I presume Dept of Trans. knows about it sitting there. Its trailer is now nearly fully buried, just the trailer hitch exposed and the boat is half full of sand but i reckon when the big storms and swells hit that boats going to be a hazard smashing and rolling around over the beach . Hey  Josh90 the hulls fucked but the outboard is sitting on a nice ally pod thats gotta be worth some dollars, I thought about getting some tools outa the car and having a go removing some shit, ie bow rail, grab  rail, pod etc but thought i better not. Hope it doesnt get washed back out and become a boating hazard to others like myself
