NEREUS – Where Is She

NEREUS – Where Is She

WW was recently contacted by Richard Heath regarding the whereabouts of his 1970 Woolley 35′ launch – Nereus.

The photo above was taken during Richards ownership period and they sold her c.2005.

Can anyone help with details.

Dennis Macinaghie sent in the rather sad looking photo below of vessel that has been aground for several days now in Waiomu Bay on the Coromandel Coast, north of Thames.  We don’t know the name or any circumstances but she keeps filling up each high tide. Looks as if its been ‘prepared’ for abandonment i.e. very bare looking.Could be wrong but I suspect there isn’t much real wood in her, has the plywood look.
