Mystery Launch 08-12-2017
Today’s mystery launch started life as a Coulthard sedan launch, the photos above show her in the mud at Whangarei a couple years ago. The photos came from Nathan Herbert, who commented that while working on Lucinda a while back he met a man who mentioned his family had a long ownership of this boat.
So woodys – can we name her & dig up some history on her past life?

The Nautilus with Red Crosses on the side has just hit the water again after a spot of maintenance I suggested that perhaps they should have attended Patio Bay last weekend with large water bottles and Berocca to hand out on Sunday morning!

I have a couple photos of the boat as a sedan launch, pre raised bridge and dodger. She looks to have had a well fitted out interior n her day
