Remember the Northern Star from somewhere, lovely looking old girl. Thanks for the look around. I lived in Picton in an earlier life, worked at Jorgensen Marine in Waikawa just after they split with Dan Sheppard and I ran the marine workshop side. Lived up Russell St overlooking the Picton Marina when Carey's caught fire one night. I remember watching the gas bottles or drums of thinners going up above the coat hanger bridge. Brings back memories, cheers.
Thanks that's what I love about this chanel, lots of folks have got some great stories about the boat, families and area, I had Phillip Carey do my insurance inspection report on it, he had been on the original build and spent a day crawling around tapping with his hammer when the boat was on the hard
@@bilgerat711 Pretty sure Jim Fishburn may have had Northern Star fishing out of Dryden Bay, or, my mind is playing old age games with me. Do you moor her in Momorangi Bay ? Cheers and keep your updates coming.
