Paddle Steamer Curlip II is a replica of an
historic paddle steamer of the Snowy River, in Far East
Gippsland, Victoria.
A community project, her construction has
utilized the traditional skills of wooden boat builders, and
thousands of hours of volunteer labour. From December 2008 she
will operate as a cruise vessel on the Snowy River Estuary
exploring the natural and cultural heritage of this hidden gem of
south east Australia.
Come and celebrate her commissioning at "The
Curlip on Snowy Festival", November 28-30, 2008, with wooden boats,
musicians, art and markets in the stunning setting of the Snowy
River as it meets the sea.
