Agree those guys use her more than any other classic launch that I know of.

Sadly Murray – yes. She hit a rock off Motuihie Island yesterday & had to be ran aground on the beach, where she spent last night. Happy to say she is now now safely hauled out at Half Moon Bay. But there is a large/ish hole & I understand the motor took a bath.
The really sad thing is she had been enjoying a rolling restoration & had never looked better. Her owner (not on board at the time) is a wonderful guy & will ensure Nereides is returned better than before.

Is this the Nereides rather low in the water by Motuihie on the weekend?
