Shango

Shango

I spotted the 40’ Atkinson designed launch – Shango anchored in Little Oneroa, Waiheke Island over the xmas > new year period.

Very impressed that she has had a top chop and lost the radar tower, refer photo below from the 2020 Woody Waitangi Day Picnic at Wakalabubu Bay, Motutapu Island.

In a previous life the launch was named – Ani and before that – Brief Affair ? Link below to that WW story and photos https://waitematawoodys.com/2020/01/16/ani-bri
