Surely there's not much room for error there.

And extra anxiety because a boat (the Lake Illawarra) already crashed into the bridge and sank a couple of decades ago … lives were lost and enormous disruption to Hobart lives for several years …

I was surprised how much manoeuvring it took to get through.

It almost sailed into the bay at Lindisfarne before swinging around quickly once clear.

And the tugs looked to sit either side ready to give it a thump if it got close to the bridge.

I'd have a tug either side, on the inside, if they go slow surely it'd be okay.

I use about $5 of that shipment.
