I am new to this boards, I haven't a clue where I posted this?! I'm js wondering about this pink boat. I work nearby and a coffee shop is badly needed down that area. The shop at the docks closed down ages ago and the nearest place is up town. Someone else told me, what ever it is is opening this wkend? What is it?!! Ahhh!!! Haha ðŸ˜

I was joking that the thread might give the impression (given the coincidental *ahem* nature of your username) that you are using the thread as a 'shill' to advertise. The Mods would lock such a thread, hence IBTL. But it sound like you too are awash with curiosity. Pity no body can tell us what it is for sure :P

I heard it was the new floating STD clinic. But then again the person I heard it from was a bit tipsy. Still, much needed

So, IF the big pink barge becomes a cafe, will peeps actually pay to sit on it, in a mud-dock off the beaten track, smelling the sh1t wafting in from Mutton Island?

Its a bang bros boat. Goes out to the middle of the bay where they have "parties" without drawing too much attention.

It's going to be used as a static boat. Hence gangway resting on the stern and raised wall at entrance to maintain certain depth
