SOU’ EAST
The 39′ 1947 Lanes built Sou’East is seen above weighing in a thresher shark at Paihia in 1984. Photos ex Dean Wrights collection.
Sou’East has appeared on WW before, but not as above – to view as launched photos & current day, click the link below.
I have include below another of Dean’s photos, this one of the very ‘salty looking’ commercial fishing boat – Lady Karen – photo dated 1984, when owned by Frank Goodhue.

That’s my father in the blue. Still living and fishing out of Tutukaka. Lots of memories on my grandfathers boat growing up. Would love to know where she is now.

Hi, in my opinion game fishing should be outlawed. It`s a practice suited to people who seek attention and glory for exhibiting the results of a cruel death of beautiful and harmless creatures of our seas.

I think it is a shame someone modified the original dodger many years ago now, as portrayed in the image I took in 1949, as in my view it seriously denigrated the aesthetically beautiful low sleek flowing lines, she had when designed & built. — Perhaps one day someone will change it back again so she caner once again have that superb concept. — KEN R
