CLASSIC WOODEN LAUNCH – LORNA – WHAT BECAME OF HER

Back in Oct 2025 WW was contacted by John Vague in regard to a a launch name the LORNA that when John was very young was owned by his uncle R.W. Hutchinson.It was on one of the five moorings at St Hellers Bay., Auckland, approx. year 1948. John recalls she was about 28’ long. Back on Oct John was hoping one of the WW readers would be able to supply more intel on the vessel. I was for some photos and John took on the task of tracking some down.

Fast forward to this week and John advised the son of Reg Hutchinson uncovered and sent in the two photos above.
So woodys can we help John out.
