Its been a while since we had an update from Nelson, New Zealand on the Koorale, I’m pretty much heartbroken looking at this photo. As you can clearly see the port side rail and pilot house is being completely rebuilt and I guess the good news is after a couple month stoppage due to COVID-19  the work has resumed . I can’t say Thank you enough to my Nelson connection Michael Burt for continuing to share photos with us. [email protected]

Just another day in the 70s down at the Embarcadero. Some net work going on love the old school corks , if I were to take a shot I would say this could be the Cherly Marie or Diana C ? Just a guess . [email protected]

Classic old school photo of the men stacking net at Embarcadero, I’m guessing looking at the seiner in background this is late 60s early 70s. [email protected]
