Canoeists rescued from Lake Connewarre

By December 6, 2016Activities

Six teenage canoeists got into difficulties while paddling up the Barwon River to Lake Connewarre. A change of tide and strong head winds left them exhausted and unable to complete the return journey. They raised the alarm and at the request of the Water Police, Coast Watch was able to arrange a shallow water vessel to go upstream and retrieve them. Towed line astern, they made a colourful procession back down the river.
