In his quest for interesting boats to photograph for in the boat shed, my brother Matthew Atkin has seen some sights, but probably none have been as overwhelming as Sassoon Dock.
Here’s what he says:
‘Sassoon Dock – as you can probably tell – really blew me away. The stench was terrible and the heat intense – the soup you had to walk through of fish heads, shrimp shells, diesel and unimaginable black stuff was awful, however I was the only westerner to be seen and felt like I was going back 100 years.
‘All the photos were taken on a Sunday morning. Next time I eat shrimp I hope it is well washed as I now know how it gets shelled and to my plate.’
Thanks for the photos Matt!
