| - | ==== Murray River ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | The Murray river will involve the second construction of a vessel and the first journey. The construction will happen in Port Adelaide, transport to the launching place will be from our support team. | ||
| - | |||
| - | === Dates (proposed) | ||
| - | |||
| - | Vessel construction and testing January 23-28, Journey 1-21 February, Parade 24 February. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Launching around Ned's point or Lock 9. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Travel is expected to be between 20 and 40 kilometers per day, based upon experiences of 2 similar projects. Water currents will be important. The can be found [[here]http:// | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | === Vessel: === | ||
| - | |||
| - | The vessel will be built from scavenged, recycled or otherwise low impact parts. | ||
| - | * Plan 1 involves a lot of scrap celerytop wood to build a punt. | ||
| - | * Plan 2 involves using scrap rowing vessels | ||
| - | * Plan 3 involves using some old hull and extras, as the Subak in Linz. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Sail will be a junk rig, oars will be used and possibly a Yuloh. A tentative plan for pedal power exists - details at the beginning of January. | ||
| - | |||
| - | === Fringe parade: === | ||
| - | Some things to bear in mind for the Fringe parade finale on 24 Feb. | ||
| - | * All floats must not exceed 4.3m in height. This height includes the vehicle plus any parade participants on the float. | ||
| - | * The parade will only be viewed from the east side of King William Street, so you only need to decorate the front and right side of your vehicle/ | ||
| - | * There will be a DJ playing throughout the parade route. | ||
