New Australian Home For Lady Gay
It appears the dockside rumours are true, the photos below confirms that the 1935 Colin Wild built launch Lady Gay is now residing on Sydney Harbour, Australia. I hope someone has paid the bond………………
Update 08-10-2019 – I have been told Lady Gay posted a substantial bond for her return to NZL. She is on a 3-year leave from NZL to cruise the Australian East Coast.

Email the photo to me at waitematawoodys@gmail.com and I will add it to the story.
LG owner, a Kiwi, has resided in Australia for a long time. I assume she went as deck cargo.

Very Many Thanks, Alan.
But how, when and at what/whose considerable cost did the magnificent Lady Gay make her gracious way from Palm Beach, Waiheke Island – as pictured by our family in January this year (attached) – to Sydney Harbour?
We will miss admiring Lady Gay on our next Waiheke summer holidays.
A trip to Sydney may have to be on the cards!
Best regards,
