Mason Bay

The rebirth and conversion of a New Zealand fishing boat-and maybe her further adventures. Other boats and observations will happen from time to time.....

LADY RUIA



This delightful little craft is 13ft3in by 6ft 8in mini Mullet boat.Photo taken in the 1960,s in Omaha Bay from my 18ft hard chine mullety. Double diagonal kauri hull, 2 bunks below.Drew 4ft 6in with the steel plate keel bolted in. Normally dries out without, but haul her down with a halyard and tie to a dinghy and fit the keel between two angle irons with 5 bolts. Last seen on the beach at Point Chevalier some years ago- may still be around?
