The Julie Burgess is the last of the fleet of small sailing vessels that traded and fished in the waters of Bass Strait for well over a century.
These boats were the work-horses of early Tasmanian coastal settlements, carrying timber, farm produce and other cargoes along the coast and across Bass Strait before there were ports, roads, railways and bridges.
