New Boat For Nelson Fleet

A gleaming new 34ft cabin cruiser with sleeping accommodation for six, slid into the water at Port Nelson last month. The vessel, of Carl Augustine design, was built by Mr Stan Cooper and his sons over the very short period of 10 months. The sleek vessel has a beam of 10ft 6in and is powered by a Bel Air V8 motor.
