I did a weeks work experience on the MV Freshwater in 1989 for highschool and got to get an amazing experience that could never be repeated. The Manly Ferries of Sydney harbour are absolutely spectacular and iconic ❤.
She probably won’t be retired anytime soon, they keep on changing their minds about everything. It’s simple, they’ll cut up Narrabeen for parts, only to acquire parts that can keep Freshwater and either Collaroy or Queenscliff going (probably Collaroy). I don’t think they’ll bring Queenscliff back, when I say that, I mean to replace Collaroy. #savethemanlyferries
And they are stupid enough to tell us that these new ferries are going to handle these big swells. It’s a great behind the seas video I would like to see more.
@@JB-ie9hj he along with everybody who supports this rash decision should be made to do the Manly run when there us a two metre swell coming through the heads, I’m sure they’ll change their minds then.
@@peterbuckley3877 I agree with you and how ridiculous Chinese made Catamarans replacing these graceful Australian made ships and run by a French company . Unfortunately they won’t change there mind as they would not want to back down .It is just unbelievable
@@JB-ie9hj they I Indonesian made aren’t they or ist that the other ones? I know the smaller ones were made in Newcastle I fail to see why we can’t manufacture locally.

I miss them throwing the ropes themselves. They were absolute pros!
They still do 😂
Joseph Zielke every time I’ve gone they hand them to the people on the dock... or throw them a guide rope

@@coolsoap8 I hope they don't cut my boat up.
@@coolsoap8 Your statement did not age well. Unfortunate it only took a year to happen.
How could anyone give a thumbs down to this?
Maybe because they hate the accompanying music.
Gladys?
Can we see more please!!
Im very surpride that the ferry the. Sidney bay area's
I sometimes see them anchored overnight at middle head? What is the system for it?
Soon these wonderful Ferries will be replaced by ridiculous catamarans.

@@peterbuckley3877 Yes the Transport Minister has no idea ,they are removing history .

Take care Buddy! Hope you're doing OK these days!!
I'd hate the fast ferries because it's not manly it's like a working class ferry
AHH the pre Covid days
That colour is very tired, that belly has retired
SHIT that music SUCKS !!!
