That's not an Australian beer, but a little metal boat with a modest outboard motor. Go to Rose Bay, where you can rent one for about $200, hire some fishing tackle, and pootle out into the harbour. Navigating a busy shipping lane and dozens of ferries is not as daunting as it seems and you can always find a quiet, hidden corner of the vast harbour. I only caught some seaweed but there are plenty of focused fishermen catching serious sea creatures out there.
