Title: Shoalhaven River Gorge Takeout - Old Timberlite
Post by: BJ on October 14, 2015, 08:49:57 PM

We've been putting a cable up on the shoalie at Old Timberlite for the purpose of getting boats out of the gorge. Here's a video of our latest weekend down there.

I gotta say I gave you guys very little chance of making anything half useful when I heard of this crazy plan.  Looks like you have well and truly proved me wrong!

Alex it mainly came off because of some hard work and BJ's awesome design and construction skills.

Cheers Griff, but we couldn't have done it without your ridiculously good cable craft skills either!
