Sadly, the 2016 floods in north west Tasmania sounded the death knell of "April Rose," her final resting place - Hawley Head at Port Sorell. Damaged beyond repair, Hurricane Marine was tasked with disposing of the vessel and recently removed the ballast, engines and other remaining debris. With limited access and the need to minimise any potential impact on the environment and wildlife, the only option was to...get to da choppa! Jack hammers, circular saws and good old fashioned elbow grease were utilised to break the carnage up into manageable pieces with the help of Van Dieman Diamond, before it was flown out by Tasmanian Helicopters.

Last month Hurricane Marine helped retrieve this 10 metre yacht after it sank in The Gulch at Bicheno, on Tasmania's East Coast. Dozens of onlookers crowded the jetty to watch "Matisse" resurface from the crystal clear water, which was quite a logistical exercise.

The salvage of a Roberts 50 Ketch Motorsailer, "Detente," on the picturesque Tamar River in northern Tasmania. She broke her mooring in wild weather and went aground at Spring Bay, just south of Batman Bridge. Hurricane Marine rolled her over, patched up the damage and towed her to the slip at Gravelly Beach.
