About
The Ferry Boat storey, The rusting remains of the Showboat and two vehicular ferries on Main Beach at South West Rocks bring back memories of a saga that occurred in 1972. Washed ashore during a storm. All salvage attempts failed and a long court battle to have the wrecks removed from the beach began. Almost a year later, the "Sydney Queen" was burnt to enable the engine and boilers to be removed for scrap. The elements have taken their toll on the wrecks but it is still possible to see a few rusting remains whilst strolling along Main Beach. Right on the shoreline facing Trial Bay. This photo is from my film camera. This is straight from the negative scan, no adjustments at all.
