H28 Commemoration

Fifty Years Under Sail: H28 Yacht Owners’ Association of New Zealand 1974-2024

The H28 Yacht Owners’ Association of New Zealand is proud to announce the publication of a special commemorative book celebrating 50 years of yachting, both local and offshore.

Edited by Quentin Allan and Evelyn Gauntlett, endorsed by Mark Orams, and with a foreword by Penny Whiting, this book honours the enduring legacy of Herreshoff’s iconic H28, a yacht that has not only graced New Zealand’s seascape with its elegant design but has also forged a tight-knit community of sailing enthusiasts.

In coffee-table format, at 230 pages, this book is packed with fabulous colour photos and engaging accounts of H28 yachting adventures including racing,  fortnightly rallies around the Hauraki Gulf, voyages around the Pacific and beyond, not to mention at least one circumnavigation.

2022 Max Carter Custom Schooner | Morwenna
NZD $460,000
2022 | 18.50m / 60.70ft | Morwenna is a beautiful Steel schooner designed by Max Carter and meticulously built by Mitchell Marine, crafted with the vision of a seasoned world cruiser. Conceived as the ultimate liveaboard and long-range yacht, no expense has been spared in her construction. She is structurally complete, with extensive high-end systems installed, and is currently liveable and operational under power. While her hydraulic systems are fully installed and mast stubs are in place, she still requires spars, rigging, and sails to realise her full sailing potential.

H28 50th Anniversary Gala Dinner & Book Launch will be held at the Milford Cruising Club, 24 Craig Road, Milford, Auckland on 17 August, 2024 starting at 5pm. Tickets are $75.00 per person
