To story features a 1967 Owen Wooley, sedan-top classic launch was built by Roger Priest boat builders & finished by Roy Parris using 2 skin kauri with solid timber coamings & is approx. 37′ in length.
Zoom zoom is via a 135h.p. 6 cyl Ford diesel, that sees her cruising at 8 knots.
She has enjoyed the same owner for the last 40 years & while very original this means she has retained her classic good looks 😉 (details ex Brain Worthington)
Any one able to tell us the name of this Tauranga based launch?
