Don & Theresa Rumph's Tortuga, built at Yokohama in 1964. |
John and Elizabeth Bassar built Mithril and launched her in December 1979. Here she is leaving Long Beach in 1984 on her way to Maui. |
|
This is Hope, based out of Port Tarakohe, New Zealand owned by Peter Green.She was originally built in 1932 in Dunedin, New Zealand Kauri on Australian Jara frames 6" apart. |
Hope is getting new sails. The two forward sails have already been replaced, and the mainsail is next on the list. |
|
Hope has been fully restored with some modern additions as you can see. I love this boat and she gets what ever she needs (wants). |
She has a new deck of glassed-over ply. |
Also part of the update is a new alloy mast. |
