Remarkable Equipment
“This remarkable equipment has come out of a little place called Tasmania, which half the world doesn’t even know exists; out of a place called Kingston, which people definitely don’t know of; and its sold by these funny Tasmanians who are dogmatic, passionate and brilliant at what they do. They’re the ultimate product”
- Captain Peter
