It was the middle of winter. Dan was cruising along… and then hit a sandbank at 40km/h.

One minute: living the dream.
Next minute: waist-deep in freezing Murray water digging your boat out.

Still living the dream though…

There’s a reason we don’t show you everything about Tinny Rally.

Because part of what made Dan’s original trip so bloody special was not knowing what was coming around the next bend.

And we want you to have that exact same experience.

Some things are better experienced for the first time when you’re actually out there.

There’s something about the rhythm of the river.

The tinny humming along. The Murray stretching out in front of you. No traffic. No emails. No rushing to the next thing.

Just you and the river.

It’s something Dan discovered on that very first solo trip.

There were problems, questionable decisions and plenty he hadn’t planned for… but there were also those moments when everything went quiet and he realised just how bloody special it was to experience the Murray this way.

It’s a mental reset without even trying to be one.

And every now and then, you catch yourself looking around and thinking…

How good is life right now?

When the support crew have the goods…
Suddenly that breakdown doesn’t seem quite so bad.

Parts? Yep.
Tools? Yep.
Someone who actually knows what they’re doing? Yep.

Out here, the support crew aren’t just helpful…
......they’re your new best mates.

Tinny Rally runs twice a year in Autumn & Spring and sells out every time!

How long have you been saying “one day”?

5 years?
10 years?
20 years?

Dan had been wanting to travel down the river for years before he decided one day to just do it.

It wasn't perfectly planned. Things went wrong. There were questionable decisions, unexpected stops and plenty of figuring it out along the way.

Sometimes the difference between “I've always wanted to do that” and “remember when we did that?” is just deciding to go.

Are you ready for your 'one day' to turn into 'Day One'?

726km down the Murray. 7 days. One hell of an adventure.

How good is this?

You’re miles from where you started. You’ve tackled the long days and you pull up to the brewery.

You pull in and realisation kicks in. You realise what you’re actually doing.

You’re travelling 726km down the Murray River in a tinny.

Something that might have sat on the wish list for years is suddenly happening.

And you’re not even finished yet.

Are you ready to tick this off your wish list for 2027?

Sometimes the best moments are the ones that were never part of the plan.

Before Tinny Rally, there was just one bloke, a little boat and a stupid idea — to see how far he could travel down the Murray in a tinny.

There was shallow water.
Boat problems.
Questionable decisions.
Wrong turns.
And plenty of making it up as he went. 😂

But somewhere between Plan A falling apart and Plan B being invented on the spot, something pretty bloody special happened.

The Tinny Rally was invented.

You come for the Tinny Rally…

But then the Murray casually throws THIS at you.

Before Tinny Rally existed, Dan decided to see what it was really like to travel a serious distance down the Murray in a tinny.

And somewhere along the way, he discovered it wasn’t just about how far you could go.

It was how special it was getting there.

Dan now: “Test your tinny. Be prepared. Know your fuel consumption. Plan ahead.”

Dan before Tinny Rally existed:

❌ Hadn’t done half the things he now tells everyone else to do
❌ Middle of winter
❌ Various problems and questionable decisions
✅ Little boat
✅ Murray River
✅ Went anyway 😂

It started with one bloke wondering whether you could travel a serious distance down the Murray in a tinny — and whether it would be as bloody good as he imagined.

So he went and found out.

Turns out it was even better… and that slightly stupid idea eventually became Tinny Rally.
