Harry
Dodge of Risdon, an ex square rig sailor come waterside worker and firewood
merchant ran a ships graveyard at Old Beach.
"Captain" Dodge, as he called himself,was at the wheel of "Otago"
which had been towed to Risdon by the ex steam yacht "Ena".
The final shove from Ena saw "Captain Dodge" steer his one pound
ship towards his jetty which he rammed. Jetty and shed collapsed. Dodge
then cut and opened up the stem, ran a plank up and used her as his firewood
cutting shed. |
