GALE

Back in June 2022 WW was contacted by the owner of the 1949 36’ yacht – Gale C4

Her story goes something like this – Gale was designed by Charles Bailey Jnr., but not built till 40>50 years later, possibly in Titirangi West Auckland, builder unknown. Construction is two skin kauri on Oregon stringer.

At the time WW was contacted her owner was going thru the ‘do I – dont I’ stage in regard to either a restoration or selling Gale as-is-where-is.

Do we know what happened – hopefully it was a ‘I Do’ decision and Gale is tucked away in a shed somewhere.
