Who can ID this?

Unless you saw her hauled out, ID’ing this classic yacht will be a challenge 🙂 but we have some serious train spotters out there, so lets hear your picks.
The ww follower that gets it right will win a copy of Baden Pascoe’s great book ‘Launching Dreams – Percy Vos- the boats & his boys’
T&C’s
1. The owner is not going to win, you are already a winner 😉
2. Anyone that ‘hangs out/works’ around Westhaven is not going to win 😦
3. The judges (thats me) decision is the final & no correspondence will be entered into 🙂

Well we took a yacht out this time, and it was great to see the boys reaching up and down on Rainbow? Weather was perfect.

Hmm, as a non Aucklander, and only visiting Auckland when it can’t possibly be avoided. (I don’t even know what a Westhaven is) I’ll have a stab.
I’m think its Waitangi too.

Not sure where Thelma’s mast is broken but I think it would have shown up in that pic so I am going for Waitangi

I’d have a guess at Thelma, I saw her at Orakei last Wednesday and her varnish was looking a little so so, hence the tent.
