Turning in his grave.
Poor old Abel Tasman, great explorer and seaman , being used by a
get rich scheme as a way of making it sound more Australian.
Still a little known fact , one of the boats in his early fleet was called the ENGEL
quote;
His fleet included the ships Engel and Gracht and reached Fort Zeelandia (Dutch Formosa) and Deshima.
I kid you not!
So maybe it fits, being a freezer with a boat around it.
