Caprice c.1953, under way, photo taken from the launch Waitangi. Owned by Roger Guthrie’s family. Second photo is of Caprice hauled out at Silver Bay, Waiheke Island for antifouling. The little guy in the photo is Roger Guthrie.
I took this photo 3 years ago of this very cute woody in Oneroa, Waiheke Island. It was early morning & just one of those moments worth getting out of the bunk for. The name eludes me.
Little Jim & Raindance in Patio Bay, post race, prior to the CYA Christmas Party
Hows this for a club house, even has a haul out cradle along side.
Someone spent too long at the winery & forgot about the tide 🙂
Stunning sunset in Rocky Bay, Waikehe Island last night. Should meet up today with some more classics so you will see some other boats 🙂
Posting sooner than I thought, photo taken by Chris Miller on board Rorqual via iPhone. Not often both myself & RD are in the same photo 🙂
Stunning late ago in Rocky Bay.
Last post for a few days – hope to be sitting in a bay, watching the sun rise & set, somewhere around Waikehe Island. I hope you all have a good break & the bunny finds you where ever you are 🙂
Raindance in race mode, yeah right 🙂 during the running of the 2010 Rudder Cup , after stripping anything that was not bolted down off, draining the water tank, just enough fuel on board etc I only gained 0.25knts average speed.
