Maiwar in the 1930s

Newstead wharf with Plume oil tank and wool stores behind

My old boat, the MV Careel, used to be moored at Newstead Wharf near the entrance to Breakfast Creek. It was a gaff rigged yawl made from spotted gum with a long bowsprit, quite beamy with a centreboard. It is now called the Toona Maris beautifully crafted by Nick from Conrad blocks. It was powered by a Canadian Palmer kerosene engine.

MV Careel now Toona Maris
