Woodys Riverhead Tavern Classic Launch Cruise
Saturdays weather forecast was a wee bit gnarly but with the promise of an improvement later in the day – Harbour bridge > Kauri Point – unpleasant. Kauri Point > Herald Island – average. Upper Harbour > Hotel Good.
The time ashore was perfect, great location, service and the food very good. Return trip ok, except for between the Hobsonville and Te Atatu area – SW wind was whistling thru from the Waitakere Ranges.
We had 10 woodys turn out, 4 of them being newbies to the creek – Awarua, Manu, Margaret Anne and Waione – nice boats, nice people 🙂
Thanks to everyone for a great day.

4th photo down, I think is Helen Maree ex Clevedon cruising club vessel. Probably stating the obvious, but she sold and has relocated to a swing mooring around herald island a few weeks back.
A very well built solid vessel I am told.
I think you’re right – I blew the original photo up and the first word on the name board looks like Helen, also the board is very long so would ‘fit’ the name. Alan H
