The Rose Bay Tripod

I spent 15 minutes lookin for it today and didn't realise it had been replaced hahaha "slaps forehead"

Obviously- I don't know what happened to it !

We talking about the same one?

The yellow marker was replaced earlier this year.

The Tripod still seems to have the vertical pylon but is missing the angled ones. You can see where they were and have been unbolted.,

A few weeks ago I spoke to a crew of Maritime workers who were inspecting the Tripod.

They said they had no idea what had happened to the three angled poles that surround the central pilon.

They had diving gear ready for a closer inspection.

They all looked to be in good condition and you could see the bolts that held them in place. It looked as if they were

simply unbolted and taken away.

Not sure if anything has been done about it yet but I hope its fixed because this has been a good kingy spot over the years albeit

a difficult one if hoodlums show up as they hang very close to the structure and can be very difficult to stop.

They hve been missing since winter, I remember we had a big storm and seas, I went out the next week and 1 or 2 sticks were missing then the third went a few weeks later.

Does anyone know what the purpose of that marker is?

Thanks for that Mike.

I was surprised... they looked quite robust.

I hope they put them back.

Cheers

Jim
