Description

The Shank Returns

First came The Shank, then The Shank Revisited and now The Shank Returns – a singularly unique publication whose primary purpose is to help safely navigate mariners along an expanse of rugged coastline besieged by the Southern Ocean and the Roaring Forties.

Yet over its three editions, The Shank has evolved into more than just a navigation guide, or Rutter. The Shank Returns is Ian Johnston’s dedication of love and clarion call to protect not only this staggeringly beautiful area, but all of the truly wild places left on our planet.

The Shank Returns is for anyone that wishes to turn the pages of adventure on the high seas, or plans to visit Tasmania’s wild South West Coast for themselves.
