15 nights the Pasha Bulker had been stuck firmly to the sandy bottom of Nobbys Beach, Newcastle, NSW when I grabbed this capture. The big salvage operation went ahead readying for the opportunity presented by the next big tide. Many of the onlookers tended to be somewhat sceptical!! However, on the 2nd July at around 10:00 pm the large bulk carrier was released from its sandy prison and towed out to deep water. For three weeks it had been captive on this sandy beach and reef.
