I love those old clinker type boats. Nice pics.

The Piners punt is a real classic. It's an original from the Gordon River on the west coast of Tassie. Same as used by the poor convicts forced to work the Huon Pine forests in some of the worst conditions anyone can imagine.

I've actually rowed one of these in a race at the piners festival at Strahan and they perform incredibly well and are easy to move along. A great design!

Nice set - #4 is fantastic. Love its textures and colours. #6 with its simplicity and reflection also stands out.
