A soft drizzle, umbrellas along the jetty at Henley Beach, and the sky glowing in golden tones as the evening settled in.

The beloved Popeye first set sail in 1935, built by Captain Gordon Watt right on the banks of the Torrens. Named after the famous cartoon character of the time, this 25-foot wooden boat began ferrying passengers between Elder Park and the Adelaide Zoo — and a South Australian icon was born.
