Local top hats

Local top hats

Postby frank » Thu Sep 09, 2021 4:20 pm

Hi All
It's been a few years since I've been on here. Lots of things have changed since. I was wondering what top hats are around the Mornington Peninsula or nearby. I'm now retired and have an empty woodworking factory. Handy for a worthwhile project.
Would like to hear from anyone nearby.
Cheers
frank

Hi Frank,

I have not noticed any Top Hats on the Port Phillip side of the Mornington Peninsular in the last few years. I think one relocated from Blairgowrie to Geelong. I moved my boat around to Westernport. There are a few in Hastings, including one which was sailed around from NSW about a year ago.
I believe that one of the timber ones which had been ashore on the peninsula for several years was trucked to Port Albert. I suspect some other timber ones may have been scrapped by now.
