Do you know a seafarer worthy of the Old Sea Dog title?

If so, submit a pic and a short bio via our website.

It has been wonderful meeting all of the original Old Sea Dogs of Tasmania, however there are many other old salts out there whose stories also need telling. For this reason we’re already planning to create a second edition and Old Sea Dogs from all states in Australia are welcome to register.
