Riverboats Remembered - An Australian River History
Anyone interested in the colourful beginnings of Paddle Steamer pioneering history, will enjoy this multi-faceted journey through riverboat paddle steamer beginnings - right up to modern times. A large variety of vessels are shown being built, in service through many decades, and being renovated for continuous use as romantic tourist pleasure craft.
The vital services these unique boats brought to the ever growing towns and cities along this famous stretch of water (one of the longest rivers in the world) have been an essential part of many growing industries, also in the lives of multiple thousands of river dwellers and those who lived and served on them. Rare early silent footage has been lovingly restored and included to follow their history to the present.
