Purchase of project and move to Coromandel

2001: We purchased a neglected ships project and transported the hull on a big truck from New Plymouth to Coromandel. The trip took two days!

The Ship is loaded on the truck, ready to move. I follow in our van.

We have arrived in Coromandel! The truck is leaving and the hull is perched on two temporary supports.

That is how the decks looked. The red color is a steel primer.
