Looking For A Set Of Portholes?
This poor old girl is listed on trademe, & the vendor is very honest & upfront – suitable for parts only. So if you are looking for some pot-holes – check her out.
Sadly, the removal & disposal costs will possibly rule that out – but you never know, there might be something else worth saving. Located in South Auckland & a deceased estate.
Its listed on tme as ‘30ft Kauri Strip Plank Launch’. Thanx to Ian McDonald for the listing heads-up
Anyone able to shed some light on her name – would be nice to record that she is deceased.

also, bad news about the portholes, they are just bronze rings….. over glass rebated into the wood…. so not so useful.. Very nice rear end this boat bad.

We had a look at this and noticed a few things:
-attractive tumble home to transom unlike most basic 30fters
-nice throttle control lever
-Old style 5 or 6 blade prop
-nice flare in the bow; 1920s+
-re-ribbed
-rot in some planks ahead of stbd side sheer step, rest seem good
