Wanted - boats of all kinds

The People's Blockade of the World's Biggest Coal Port will be the third event of its kind in Newcastle. While the previous two events were fabulous, and hundreds of people were able to reclaim Newcasle Harbour, there were more people who would have liked to go on the water but couldn't. There just weren't enough boats.

This time, we want to try and make sure everyone who wants to blockade the harbour can do so. This is a call out for boats of all kinds! If you can get any number of any kind of floating device to Newcastle on Saturday the 3rd November, we want to hear from you. Even if you can't get them here yourself, we want to know about them. Here are some ideas:
- canoes and kayaks
- tyre tubes
- dinghies
- yachts
- surfboards

 

Etc, etc, etc.

We're also interested in wetsuits and life jackets, if you have access to any of those.

If you can help please send an email to risingtide at risingtide dot org dot au or call (02) 4926 1641.

Thanks!
Rising Tide Newcastle
