River Murray, South Australia
These boats have been working the river for near on 200 years. Not sure how old this particular boat is

Nice shot. What a lifestyle this has to be. This looks like a mosquito haven though. :)

Great shot, brings back some pleasant memories thanks for sharing. The river and the boats have an interesting history, I saw the Marion when we did a cruise on the Murray Princess but she was not steam driven like the Marion.

Magic, Peter

I've been meaning to get down that way to do one of the self-drive river cruises.

I'm a bit more determined now! ;)
