Task Force 72️ 2025-02-07T09:58:19+0000

In our last post looking at HMAS Swan, built by Fleet Base Hunter Central member Craig, we have some shot of her completed and out on the water. Swan starred at the 2024 Task Force 72 Annual Regatta, where she collected the Wentworth Shield for best model attending, a very well deserved honour given Craig's outstanding craftsmanship.

It's been a while since we brought you the build progress of Fleet Base Hunter Central member Craig's outstanding work on his destroyer escort HMAS Swan. We're pleased to bring you a selection of images as she makes her way to completion. In this case some of the work on the ship's refuelling at sea gear.

Members of Task Force 72'sFleet Base Sydney got together at the Sydney International Regatta Centre for an Australia Day Long Weekend sail. Given the 35+ degrees forecast we started and ended early, but some good sailing was had.
