SeapixOnline- Workboats - 5 of 33 CURLEW (built 1913) - took line honours in the 2010 Auckland Anniversary Day Regatta tug race sponsored by Professional Skipper magazine. Curlew was a first-time entrant and only last year was facing an ignominious end after laying almost forgotten and unloved in Opua in the Bay of Islands in New Zealand's Far North. Then she caught the attention of the Sefton Marine boys who have lovingly restored her to her former glory. All credit to them. Keywords: Workboats, Tugs, towboats |
