Our final big training walk before Coastrek is done! 🎉

Today Sarah and Dimi tackled 25km along the Fleurieu coastline, and made it!

With less than three weeks until the big 30km Coastrek walk, we’re also getting very close to our $1,000 fundraising goal for Beyond Blue. ❤️

If you’d like to support the Burgar’s Boat Co team and help us reach our goal, you can donate here:

Thanks so much to everyone who has supported us so far

Joining us on the PS Oscar W today are shipwright apprentices Luke and India from Adelaide Timber Boatworks!

Working alongside Hudson and Kairo for the day, Luke and India are getting stuck into rolling oakum and caulking.

So great to have young shipwrights working together, sharing knowledge and keeping these old-school skills alive!
