Hi,

Who can we contact to ask someone to wipe over a webcam lens that is dirty?

Thanks

Which surfcam are you talking about?

Maroubra. Looks salty.

Ha! We actually drove there yesterday in order to clean the cam but couldn't get into the building (d'oh!). Hopefully tomorrow. Apologies for the inconvenience. 

(on the other hand, we gave Bondi and our three Cronulla cams a good wash)

No worries. Cheers.
Hey... Any chance to get a cam dedicated to South Maroubra? ... Or at least configuring the Maroubra Cam to focus on the south end a little longer than it currently does?

No chance of a dedicated South Maroubra surfcam. As for holding the view there longer - will it really make much more of a difference? As it's a side on view it's hard to get a perspective of the banks anyway.. the cam is better referenced as a size/quality tool than anything else.

Geez Ben, hope you don't have to do that to all of your surfcams around the country..?
Big job, lot of driving.
Surely someone could do that for you..?
IMO Blowin probably could, he's always on the road covering the views...!

Nah, we have different arrangements for different locations, but it's easiest for us to cover the Sydney ones.
