HMAS Tobruk
HMAS Tobruk docked at Princess Wharf Number 2. The ship is a multi -purpose troop and roll-on/roll-off, heavy vehicle carrier built near Newcastle , NSW. The design includes facilities for bow and stern loading, beaching, a drive-through capacity and inter-deck transfers via ramps.
I was lucky enough to sail on the ship in 1993 as embarked forces and found that the experience just reinforced that i was better suited to the Army than the Navy as i am not a fan of being stuck on a ship for days at a time!

It surely looks massive!
JM – it does but actually it is not that big really. Plus being flat bottomed it rocks quite badly with a swell coming from the side.
