CLASSIC WOODEN LAUNCH – SHANGO (ANI > BRIEF AFFAIR) – A Peek Down Below

SHANGO (ANI > BRIEF AFFAIR) – A Peek Down Below

Back in Jan 2023 (linked below) we shared some photos of the 40’ Keith Atkinson designed / built wooden launch – SHANGO anchored in Little Oneroa, Waiheke Island. Today thanks to Ian McDonald and tme we get to have a gander below decks. Construction is stripped plank kauri. Built c.1970’s.

SHANGO is powered by a Ford 200hp 2728T diesel engine  that gives her a 9 knot cruising speed. At some stage in her ownership life someone must have done some serious cruising her her – she has 1000L fuel capacity.

Has previously been named ANI and BRIEF AFFAIR.
