I had some interest by some to know more about the boat trip I wrote about yesterday on the Huon River in Tasmania.
I found the brochure from Yukon Tours this morning and thought I would share the information from it with you. Just a short post.
The blurb on the back of the brochure describes the boat as this:
Built of Oak in 1930 the privately owned Danish sailing vessel Yukon was rescued in 1997, by Australian shipwright David Nash and his Danish wife Ea Lassen, from the bottom of a harbour near Copenhagen and carefully restored Yukon is available for private and corporate group bookings, accommodating 8 overnight and 28 day guests The crew are ask experienced sailors. They always aim to give you a joyful and safe adventure.
All Photos are taken from Yukon Tours Brochure.
How lovely! I feel like flying down under just to take a trip on it! 😀

it looks like a schooner, but i guess a ketch must be a variation on that… remarkable that it could be restored after sitting on the ocean floor for lots of years… did it have a motor?
