Lillian

LILLIAN
Built c.1948 , originally named Lillian A,  a previous owner has dropped off the “A”.  She was owned for many years at Sandspit by an Ahuroa farmer called Peterson & had a fairly chequered life, having sunk at her moorings once because of the failure of some fitting. Lillian had a Kermath petrol engine later up to the 70s or 80s replaced by a Ford Diesel. Like so many her age, Lillian has had a lot of alterations through the years, she is however looking very lovely & a credit to her current owners.
