Moored up we saw the world largest ketch. 86m long and owned by self made billionaire Kjell Inge Røkke the richest man in Norway. If look carefully you can see one of crew standing on the boom, really shows the scale of this craft.

Spotted this elegant piece of machinery on the quayside in Hobart. It’s an English manufacture steam crane from 1900, made by Jessop and Appleby Bros of Leicester.

There is always help at hand!
