    At times it is well stocked, but delays in the supply ship visits are common...things can be pretty lean then. Even essentials like petrol run out at times.

    How long would it take to navigate the rim of the island in a car?

  • @jamiehall3948

    @jamiehall3948

    8 жыл бұрын

    In a car, you would have to stick to the roads, most of which are central rather than coastal. But you could probably drive them all in half a day. Following the coast would be quite a different prospect. Many areas would not be navigable at all, even in an ATV.

    Yeah it is isolated. There are delays in shipping with essential supplies due to weather.But there are only 600 people here. The isolation, "make do" attitude and scenery are what make the place so special.

    +Jamie Hall Hi I have a question that may alter the future of the island; Let's say there were to be a wave of mass immigration, would the residence accept let's say 100000 people? Would this be feasible?

    +TehGodLord No. Absolutely not. Chathams is part of NZ and subject to immigration policy like the rest of the country. A population of 600 will not suddenly absorb 100,000. Don't be silly.
