L. FRANCIS HERRESHOFF AND THE ROZINANTE (3)

In response to these postings about the Rozinante my good friend Ben from the Netherlands emailed me and reminded me of a Rozinante being built 140kms away in Helensville just north of Auckland. Ben visited the builder Marco Scuderi when Ben and his wife Renee were in New Zealand in 2013. I remember now Ben telling me about their visit and talk with Marco, but I had forgotten about the Rozinante build. You can see a large number of photos of the early stages of this build here:

Thank you Ben : > )

No doubt some time in the future I will take a drive down to Helensville and take a look.
