More classic yachts

A couple of recent classic yachts spotted down at Westhaven. The well known Waitangi on the hard at Orams Marine in Westhaven above.  One of those Logan yachts – launched in 1894 and has a fascinating history including rolling in the Tasman Sea on it's way to Australia.

And below the Mullet Boat Arawa – also built by Logan (I think) I'm sure it would have some stories to tell as well....

Classic yachts at Ahuriri

Some classic yachts spotted on the hard at Ahuriri in Napier. They're great fun to draw in the Grey Book. 

The distinctive shape of the 2 H28s (left and right) caught my eye having sailed a lot on one as a kid in Tauranga.
