July 23 1999 – Taxi Driver Gave Lone Man A Ride
Former Furneaux Lodge water taxi driver, Donald Anderson, gave testimony yesterday of giving a lift back to his boat of a man resembling Scott Watson.
He stated that the man was on his own. He remembered the boat’s name reminded him of a sharp edged weapon.
Anderson said that the lone man had approached him at the wharf between 2 and 4am. Defence counsel, Mike Antunovic, asked if the man had said to him: “Any chance of a ride to the Blade?” Anderson replied, “ I recall that may have been what he said to me, yes.”
Anderson could not remember marking the raft of boats where he thought he had dropped the man that New Year, on a police drawing of the boats at Furneaux Lodge. However he did identify Watson’s photo out of a group of police photographs shown to him as the man that most closely resembled his lone passenger on that early New Year’s Day.
