Maiden Voyage
20 Aug 9:26 pm by Nathan Welch Category: The Expedition
With Mark arriving back in Australia last Friday the team has been flat out with final preparations and media commitments. Stay tuned f
or some footage on their most recent television interview. Geez that Mark is certainly a charismatic chap, but oh what a media tart!
The raft and customised oar frame embarked upon its maiden voyage in the Pioneer River in Mackay over the weekend. It provided the team an opportunity to fine tune a few areas and have a first hand look at Naths oar frame – is this going to work Nath?
A quick thanks to Schnieds, Frase, Billy, TC and Ange for their support and assistance on the day. The comments from the peanut gallery made the day a humorous one. Thanks guys.
Check out the photo’s of the team putting the ARK raft through its paces.

That frame looks a bit ramshackle! Who is this Ange character?
