A couple of days ago, we asked the P.S Melbourne what got her warmed up. Now, it her sister ship, the Paddle Vessel Rothbury in the dating Hot Seat! I am sure you will be able to see the differences between these lovely ladies, in personality and more! So read on, compare the two - let us know, who would you rather "Speed Date"!?


What makes you happy/sad/angry?

"What makes me happy!? Well, I get happy when I have the open river to myself and I can really open up, I love a fast paced lifestyle and getting from A to B. I get angry when people discredit me, due to my age. I may be coming up to 140, but I can give these spring chickens a paddle for their money any day! Especially these “you-bute” run-about things! They are all wash and no class – no shape and not a brain between them!"


Where are you from originally?

"I am from a small Victorian town, called Gunbower."


Are you more of a city or country person?

"I love the hustle and bustle of the big smoke, or so I think, considering I have never been in the big cities ever, but I hear they are great."


How would your best friend describe you?

"Fast paced, rev-head, always talking a million miles an hour, zipping ideas here there and everywhere!"



What is your dream job?

"Going up and down the river to wineries, pubs, dodging the terrible wash making things."


What colour best describes your personality?

"Blue – like a racing river."


What are you most passionate about?

"Getting out from my moorings, taking people to various places along the amazing Murray River, here in my home of Mildura. I love it when I have lots of people on, especially children, as they bring a different kind of energy!"


What do you consider your best attributes?

"My sleek build and fast-paced personality."


If you have friends coming for supper what would you cook?

"I don’t have time to cook! Fast Food all the way!"


What’s your favourite wine?

"Prosecco – bubbly and spritzy."


What is the most important thing you’re looking for in a person?

"I’m looking for someone who is a thrill-seeking adventurer! All about experiencing life. You want slow pace - date my sister, P.S Melbourne, want elegance, check out P.B Mundoo - want adventure and experience, I am your girl! "


See you on the River at Mildura!

It’s amazing to see the level of craftsmanship that goes into maintaining these historical paddle steamers! Watching Chris and Andrew build a custom metal frame just to safely bend that six-metre timber plank really shows how tricky traditional shipwright work is. Bending timber at such a tight angle without snapping it takes a serious amount of patience and skill. Lately, I've been reading up on traditional trades while searching for online assignment help sydney for my cousin's research project, and it's fascinating how much engineering knowledge is embedded in these old-school techniques. Steaming timber for three full hours just to work it into shape over a rig is no joke. Fantastic post—looking forward to seeing the completed bow!

What a great short profile on the P.V. Rothbury! It’s easy to forget that while her sister ship gets plenty of attention for being steam-powered, the Rothbury’s diesel conversion and impressive towing history along the Murray really give her a unique character of her own. I was actually reading this while taking a quick break from researching Macroeconomics assignment writing services for a uni project, and it ended up being a really nice distraction. It is fantastic seeing these historic heritage vessels kept so well maintained and active for visitors in Mildura. Do you know if they still run the regular evening dinner cruises on her throughout the winter months?

The interview provides intriguing insights into the Paddle Vessel Rothbury's personality, showcasing its fast-paced lifestyle and passion for adventure. However, the comments on discrediting due to age introduce a thought-provoking issue about societal perceptions, much like the criticisms faced by figures such as Johnny Kash in various industries. The contrast between age and capability merits deeper exploration.
