Our Story …

The Boats'n'Bros teams are excited to announce that we're taking part in the Shitbox Rally 2022 Spring!! This year, all the teams in the Spring Rally are driving their shitboxes from Mackay to Darwin. We've been lucky enough to enter two teams to meet the challenge and will be raising funds to support an amazing cause.


  • Team 1 - Scott & Shane
  • Team 2 - Nick & Matt


Shitbox Rally is the largest community led fundraiser for the Cancer Council in Australia and is now in its 13th year. A key part of the rally participation is that all teams raise funds to assist with cancer research and the Spring rally target has been set at $2,500,000.


These funds go to the Cancer Council and we are extremely proud to be doing our part to support such a worthy charity. Like a lot of people across the country, we have personal experiences with family members battling cancer, and are inspired to raise as much as we can to support those who are leading cancer research in Australia.


The fundraising is the hard part, so any donation you can give is greatly appreciated. Please make sure to follow our progress via this page and the blog posts below. Stay tuned!

Here's what I'm doing …

Shitbox Rally is the adventure of a lifetime challenging participants and their cars, worth no more than $1,500, on a 7 day drive across Australia to raise money for cancer research.

The rally is not a race – it’s a fun, colourful, unpredictable adventure with participants travelling at their own pace in smaller groups. Vehicles often break down but “we never leave anyone behind” and each night is spent camping beneath the stars and celebrating the day’s achievements. It all adds up to an incredible opportunity to see Australia’s vast and beautiful countryside and make lifelong friends, many brought together after experiencing cancer themselves or seeing cancer impact family and friends.

Since it’s inception the rally has been the largest fundraiser for the Cancer Council nationally.

Shane Rendoth gave $500.00.
In memory of Jessica Rae, my youngest sister, who passed way too early. The night you left us I sat outside and gazed upon the moon. Hanging like a thin cup in the sky beckoning to be filled. I hope we can fill it in this way to support cancer research so others don't meet the same fate you did. Looking forward to this journey ahead - the top end, the stars and the moon, a shitbox and my mates.

Hey Scott+Shane. This is Martyn from team Manly Manoeuvres... we picked up "Das Audi" in Broken Hill and drove it really gently over 5 days to Adelaide via Cameron Corner and William Creek. instagram.com/manlyManoeuvres We're so pleased that Das Audi has the opportunity to do another rally. And you'll get to enjoy that sweet leather interior and dual zone climate control whilst raising money for a fantastic cause. Have a blast!

The Impact, Outcomes & Charity

Shitbox Rally is a dedicated fundraising event for cancer research with funds going to Cancer Council.

Cancer Council is one of the largest non-government funders of cancer research in Australia. We conduct and fund research studies across all cancers and all stages of the cancer journey.

Thanks to the community funds raised such as Shitbox Rally we can fund world-class research that reduces the impact of cancer for everyone.

$41 million over the past 13 years has been raised by Box Rallies to date, supporting ground-breaking projects such as:

  • A research study to develop a vaccine that protects against lymphoma cancers.
  • A research trial to standardise international guidelines on melanoma removal.
  • A research grant to revolutionise the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

These projects wouldn’t be possible without your support.
