Werribee South Caravan Park
Переглядів 4782 роки тому
If you are travelling to Tasmania this is a great caravan park to stay at. Only about 35 minutes to the Spirit of Tasmania but an easy drive straight up the M1. No fighting with Melbourne traffic. We tow a 23' caravan and I really don't like city driving. Terrific walkway along Port Phillip Bay and situated on the waterfront. Also ideal when you are travelling back from Tasmania to Melbourne.

Thankyou for such an inspirational video. I’m really excited to tackle our Jayco. I’ve purchased my vinyl, as per your suggestion, but wondered if you recommend a primer on the edges? I’ve read a few other suggestions of such, but some have negative interactions with different branded products. There’s a lot of edges and lots of rounded edges, I’m up for the challenge!
Is this the 10 tone version or 3 tone??
I hope people watch this video all the way through to the end so that they realize they do not need to drill a hole in their unit. Just slide it through the open groove on the other end. You should probably have started with that.
Best beer garden in Australia
G'day, Great video on how you applied the vinyl to your Traveller. Can you help explain how you did the cupboards after you took the doors off, and when did you cut the holes out. Before you fitted the vinyl or after? Thanks John F Kriedemann 2006 Traveller- Sunseeker 17' 6" single axle
@@johnkriedemann4901 just painted the frame then cut squares of grey vinyl and put that in the centres of each door
@@caravanlife9115 Sorry i meant the Cupboards, not the doors, thanks
@@johnkriedemann4901 that is the cupboards
Mine has gone missing. Probably blown away as you mentioned. What is it attached to? Could I make a new one somehow?
@@allisonbrinkworth4596 it's just a web strap with a short bit of plastic sown into the end so it will run along the track. Spastic is like thick whipper snipper cord. As long as it is thick enough not to fall out of the track 👍
@caravanlife9115 thanks.
These British tourists complained that 1770 beach had ugly sand and they much preferred Agnus waters . It doesn’t look that bad to me lol They probably were highly opinionated about it because they have beaches in England with not so nice sand , so it makes them feel better about British beaches . I love to visit Town of Town 1770 and Agnus Waters .Thank you for your informative video.
Hi, what number camp-site was yours ? Do you remember what number was opposite that you showed?
Not sure but any on the Western Side facing the gorge are best. They are all huge anyway 👍
@@caravanlife9115 ok , thanks I think they are in the 30's , we stopped I but have lost the site map
Brilliant, really helped us xx
Pleasure shit of a job 🤣🤣🤣
Great job. Did u have any rounded edges to do? My cupboard doors are curved and would be tricky to do.
yes I did curved edges are fine you just stretch the vinyl. if its a huge curve on a corner you may have to cur a skit abd overlap but dobe ptoperly only you would know where the cut is
How do you like it I'm about to have my fte 105 done it's had engine hp mod as well
Brilliant and I also fitted 3" exhaust. We tow a 23' van and the extra power from the exhaust and have the torque lock for downhill full engine braking in all gears is fantastic. Been down some extremely steep hills with no use of the brakes👍
@@caravanlife9115 thanks for the video. I've ordered a nomad valve body for my prado. Looking forward to fitting it
Hi there it will work only if underneath is smooth. Indents will show. Vinyl will cover faded areas but you will need to make sure it is the block out variety. Ceiling would work buy just make sure you will all the holes and raised bubbles are sanded back. It may be easier just to replace the ceiling panels 👍
Howdyyawl from the land down under. This must be an old video, The Spirit now goes out of Geelong. It's still a nice float over to Tassy. Noyhing like the exit in Tassy, the air is much cleaner & crisp. My wife & I have been over 8 times. Enjoy the trip & your time in Tassy. You may not want to leave. Keeping it real😊
Great work! I've got a 2011 Jayco pop top. There has been some water damage due to a small leak, now fixed, on the ceiling in one corner. It caused the lining to bubble. I was thinking of scraping it clean and smooth and maybe covering the whole ceiling panel with vinyl. Would then need to do the other 2 panels to match. Would that work? I also need to cover the wall above the sink and stove area as it has discoloured and there appears to be a watermark.. Seems to be a lot of cutting and measuring to get the dimensions of the vinyl to fit that area. What would be the best way to go about that? Please and thank you!!
No worries.
Excellent video. Clear and straight to the point. Great camera work as well. Pat yourself on the back. Thanks. And keep up the good work.
Absolute pleasure many thanks 😊
Top spot, now $10 per night. 😊
Great video!
Thanks for the video - will be staying here after Christmas and it is great to see what it really looks like and what is on offer.
Best ever icecream at their Cafe 😍
This video is no longer applicable because the ship now leaves from Geelong
Loved the video. subscribed to your channel. excellent info
Many thanks indeed 👍
What if there's old wall paper can you go over it or remoove it
I wouldn't I would remove it first. Any slight imperfections in the wallpaper would also show
Should read I would remove the wallpaper
Remove the wallpaper first. You then need a smooth surface so give it a sand to make sure the surface is smooth. Fill and sand any imperfections
Thank you sir, now I know where Eden is? And childhood story.
Hi I have recently a small caravan that is very "woody" aswell! I was going to paint but after seeing your vinyl handy work maybe this is best option. Did you treat the wood first with anything special or just clean it? Does the edges get that curl, same as the older contact did after time and wear? Thanks will be looking into this..
No I didn't. Just gave it a good wash to remove any grease or grime
Wot a shame to spoil an old pub....they moved to McKinlay pub out of town on to the main hwy. Wtf
Great production - thanks 😀
Lovely little video thanks. Nice to see other places than the usual. The solar farm no longer generates power. It is defunct. Such a waste. Apparently never did generate enough. I wonder why didn't they put in enough dishes?
Many thanks for your lovely comment 👍🙏🙏🙏
Hi I’m looking at buying a brand new caravan but want to paint the interior crazy colours. I don’t want to devalue the van, does removing this affect the laminex cupboard when removing??
You can get removable vinyl that is designed to be removed but I think you will still have to fond a solution to clean residue. Ask a supplier of vinyl would be best
@@caravanlife9115 thanks so much for your reply! I’ve just subscribed. Your videos looo great.
Hoping to get there sooner rather than later. :-)
Thanks for the demo, how does it go jacking up a 4x4 or car? Does it struggle at all? Gonna get one for my dad for his birthday but its hard to find any reviews on them, yours was a godsend haha.
Does it with ease. Use it all the time on all vehicles
Thanks! Bought one, your review was really helpful. I used a code and got a remote for free so you dont have to get under there to press the buttons. (Theyre normally $25)
Thanks for sharing mate
Pleasure it's a fantastic spot
@@caravanlife9115 heading off for couple of weeks fishing up Cooktown way tomorrow, I’ll check it out, cheers mate
Did you paint the frames and vinyl the middle? Do you have a video on you applying the vinyl to the frames if you did? Great job.
On the doors I pai teethe frame and did the vinyl on the door inserts. Just took the vinyl to bunnings and had them match the grey

Beautiful Mareeba, beautiful coffee plantations☕👍🌹🌳
Hi thanks for this. How do I find the max compliance of the chassis? Thanks
Hi Nick it is always on the manufacturers plate usually placed on the inside of the A section. There will be a plate somewhere. Otherwise ring the manufacturer of the chassis and give them your chassis number👍
I'm heading there tomorrow for the first time
They do not balance they are connected to another one underneath, called interchin.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching and thanks for sharing. I could spend all winter doing that. 👍
I’d also suggest folding those Wide View towing mirrors in. Not just on the TT Line, but anytime parked. They’re a very wide target!
Cracking video, going tomorrow can't wait 😀 🙌
Tasmania the Island of idiots
Hey mate awesome content. I like how you have transformed the van , we also have a traveler looking at doing the same , where can I purchase the vinyl thanks
I just went online. I purchased a full roll of block out vinyl. Blackout is important. A rolling 900mm wide and 45m in length. From memory it was a couple of hundred dollars
We just arrived here yes I agree very organise how they fit it all these too many cars I can't believe it..luv it
The pig and calf sales,you want to find a bunch of dinky dye Aussie farmers,you'll find them there.
Holy Spirit of the Living GOD bless YOUR Mighty NAME ADONAI Eloheinu forever and ever thank YOU JESUS CHRIST
Jesus Christ thank You
It's kind of sad that it's just a prop hotel and it's empty now. Your towns look pretty empty. Where's your people?
I used to live at Turners Beach as a youngster. Where the Berry patch is and on the other side of the highway was all Market garden owned by my late uncle Wes. One of his son's still lives there. Mum and Dad work for him for a year or 2. Lots of memories there. New Subscriber
Lovely place Cliff. Glad it brought back some memories for you 🙏👍🙌
this guy should be super man , yeah we got a guy with a cape , not real!!! this guy is real and did alot more giant things than most of us big guys did and all started in this small town, i can't believe that i didn't really know who this guy is until i am 55 years old and we all know about amelis air heart , she great , but she's nothing compared to bert hinkler , there should be a movie about this guy , man they have a movie about hitler ,they got a movie about that moron but nothing about this guy,maybe there is a good reason for this , but,sometimes i'm not so sure .
Totally agree. So much history is just forgotten but Hinkler was amazing 🙌👍🙏🙏🙏
