Oppy's dinghy has disappeared from where the boys left it. They blame evil spirits for stealing it. When they eventually find the boat, it takes all their strength and ingenuity for them to pull the trailer with the dinghy out of the tidal river. The boys finally limp home and return the dinghy to Oppy who is not only unimpressed but also mad as hell.

Join the Black As boys and go bush as they venture into the wilds of Arnhem Land, hunting for adventure and a hearty feed.
