[Sea drilling]

documentary heritage
  • Description

    A group of men are standing on a rough bridge between rock ledges near land on the coast of Niue. One man has what looks like a large drill. Two men are in the water trying to guide the drill while many other men and children look on. The water is high in the gully between the two rock ledges. Possibly the begining of securing the bridge to the rocks.
