photos ex Dean Wright
Dean took the camera on a wander down to the marina at Whangaroa on Saturday. From the photos above it appears the north are also enjoying our stunning autumn weather. These photos are just what they call ‘happy snaps’ to view some of Dean’s professional photography work click here http://www.deanwright.co.nz/
I went to the Hutchwilco Plastic Fishing Trailer Boat Show on Saturday & was pleased that I was fortunate enough to have not had to pay the $22 entry fee. There was not much there to excite a woody, but saying that I was surprized by the number of woodys I did bump into, mostly sniffing out small tenders & new fishing gear.
The speedster below was the exception & I only discovered it on the way out 🙂
Someone here must know. I gather she was fully renovated perhaps 10 years ago. She is in old Whangaroa photographs looking just the same. A tiny boat, I haven’t ever seen her out though.

WEONA looks interesting. What’s her story?
