Larson Norwegian Pilot House Ketch 1936

Testimony to the longevity of Norwegian design, construction, and the superb qualities of NZ Kauri, Totara with copper and bronze fastenings, RANUI has had just 4 owners (including NZ Government, a fishing company and the current owner) in a long and illustrious life.

Her scantlings are heavy, designed for and operated in NZ stormy southern ocean waters including the notorious Foveaux Strait. As a spy ship during World War 2 throughout the Pacific and later in a conversion to an Oyster Boat and then later reconverted as an expedition ship she has proven her design and husky credentials. An extremely safe sturdy and sea kindly vessel with a 3000 mile range under power she presents as an exceptional vessel capable of short handed sailing to far off exotic locations.
