MANDURAH MAORIES
This lovely couple were only too happy to let the boys clamber over their beloved Harley.
WHO EVER SAID – “ITS A MANS WORLD”
Whilst travelling up north last year we met up with Bruce & Rayleen. There a great couple & love getting onto the magnificent Mandurah waterways.
MANDURAH BOTTLENOSE
Our skipper for the day Bruce, almost guaranteed that we would see dolphins & he didn’t let us down. This is a vast estuary & until recently had just the one opening to the Indian Ocean. The result was silting & stagnant waters in the upper reaches. Approximately 15kms south of Mandurah ‘the cutting’ was formed. This is a canal that is probably 800 metres wide that connects the estuary to the ocean. The result is a continual flush with clean sea water. The dolphins that inhabit this area, along with all the other fish species is testament to the success of this venture. It is only my personal opinion, but sometimes the overall advantages of such a project can far outweigh any minor disturbances that the Greenies, at times, dig their heels in for. Thanks Bruce & Ray for a great day; great to catch up with such lovely travelling buddies.
