Thanks Ray and Rowan

Big thank you to Ray, The Care-taker at North Curly Surf Club and Rowan, The Surfer, who rescued a 70 year old tourist in big surf off North Curly rock-pool early this this morning. His family were very grateful to have him back safely on shore…



If you see Ray or Rowan, buy them a beverage!

Re: Flexibility
