Our next project.. stay tuned⚒️

DAC’s mighty Manambadda takes flight—if only for a moment—with a little help from two 40-tonne cranes!
Weighing in at 4.2 tonne bare bones, this hardworking vessel has played a big role in looking after healthy Sea Country. She’s seen plenty over the years and carries the marks of that journey.

Next up, she’s in the capable hands of Jamie and the team at where the “scar tissue” (corrosion) will be removed and her strength restored.

We’re looking forward to seeing Manambadda rise again, ready to get back out on Country doing what she does best.

Big thanks to Lenny O’Brien, DAC Marine Operations Officer who is managing Manambadda‘s recovery…
