    I remember Grant and his boat and some of the characters in this video. My old man worked for Hooky Bourke in the chinese restaurant back in 86! Can’t wait to go back!

    Fuck me dead I did a summer working in Gipsy Point years ago, not far from Mallacoota, great fishing. I’ve seen these guys videos on UA-cam since then seen the son and his boat, and when he rolled it but the old boy to go and re-purpose and be a helicopter pilot for the fire brigade… fuck what great videos Epic you guys are awesome. Garden hose for days, wish I met you at the pub!!!!!

    Looks like a real interesting video, Just could not get what he was saying because of the damn background music, Just make a documentary or a music video, not both!
