Prawn prize peeled off

Exmouth’s famous big prawn statue recently took centre stage in The Prawn Cracker photo competition organised by the Shire of Exmouth and Exmouth Wild Prawns.

The winning photo featured Sian Knox, Anna Lacy, Taryn Hall, Emily Clarke and Georgia Raymond-Vine, who took the big prawn for a wild ride and won the $500 prize.

The 7m sculpture, which weighs 2000kg, was refurbished during last cyclone season at Exmouth Smash Repairs after it had faded.
