Record numberMV-353Date1947DescriptionTo the right of the photo was the very large area of mangroves dubbed the drowning maze this being the title of, and these mangroves the basis for, a novel by author Jean Curlewis (Ethel Turner's daughter). The maze had channels within it that could be navigated and out of sight in a dinghy by pulling on branches until there was no more headroom.
