ROWENA

I have been contacted by Kelly Ellis seeking info on her previously owned launch Rowena. Kelly bought the 24’, carvel built launch in c.1997 and sold her in 2003.

Kelly commented that if she remembers correctly she was built c.1966 by Jim Cox.

During Kelly’s ownership she cruised extensively around the Northeast quadrant of the North Island.
Powered by a Perkins 4108 with a Paragon gearbox.
Anyone able to update us on what happened to Rowena after 2003?

ROWENA

Todays boat comes to us via Lew Redwood’s fb & shows the vessel Rowena. It was captioned – Feb 1948, Rowens fishing launch.
To me it doesn’t look like a working fishing boat, any of the woodys able to tell us more about her & the location?
