Valsan Re-Launched
Big day at the Milford Slipway yesterday – the 46’ 1938 built Lidgard launch – Valsan slid down the railway slip after being out for nearly 5 months. Lots of deferred maintenance was adhered to and she received a Jason Prew Paint Job (JPPJ).

Endeavour – the 1958 A Couldrey designed, Brin Wilson built launch, is part way thru her re-fresh. Fingers crossed the coamings get the Uroxsys treatment 🙂
Love the helm wheel. Read more on her here https://waitematawoodys.com/2023/01/27/endeavour-gets-a-birthday/

The VALSAN was not built in 1948 — KEN R
Appears in numerous stories with different dates. I’ll go with HDK’s 1938. Alan H
