Mystery Wellington Launch
The caption on the ‘NZ Cars, Boats etc’ facebook page (via Lew Redwood) states the photo was dated 21 April 1959 & the venue is Wellington. The lady on the right is Miss Clarissa Christian & the launch is hers.
Can we ID the launch, what became of her & is Clarissa still with us?

Harold. That is a dreadfully sexist comment coming from a lawyer at this time!

One star for the boat, 5 for the lady.
