|13| Module Transport |

The module will be primarily transported by water between destinations. This is considered the easiest mode of transport for year round deployment. This is reinforced by;

"Access to much of the region is by dirt road (often impassable in the wet season), air (a helicopter is necessary for many parts) or sea." http://avalook.com/wa/kimberly.htm

Here is an example of the type of recycled tug boat I will be using. It was chosen due to the large flat rear portion of the boat to hold my module as well as the existing accommodation inside the front cabin area. A tug boat also has a lower hull and therefore can be driven into most shallow regions.
