LADY EVELYN

I took the above photos recently in Matiatia Bay, Waiheke Island, from the mooring I assume she is a permanent resident there & hence know nothing about her. So woodys can we shed some light on the lady?

Remember the 3 day CYA Classic Yacht Regatta start today. Photo below of some of the early birds tied up in front of the RNZYS at dusk last night.

The sheer is very much like Tainui’s
Tainui’s bow is perhaps at the same angle but round with a very chunky work-boat styled stem.
Acording to Dave Jackson Tainui is a Coulthard.

oooo very late Coulthard? Coamings (except roof) style of ‘Sunseeker’ but with no raised foredeck and a funny sheer.
