sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>We had owned Runaway Bay since 2005 selling her to Phil Airey from Auckland late in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>She was built in 1984 for an Auckland financier and launched as &#8220;Rogue II&#8221;. Her name was changed to Runaway Bay by her next owner, a chap from Russell I believe. Then she was sold and renamed Jubilare and was moored at Opua when sold to Terry Iverson of USA who renamed her Valkyrie. (This was the name Terry had called all of the yachts he had owned).<\/p>\n<p>Terry spent in excess of $400,000 buying and renovating the vessel putting a new motor, electrics, rigging and sails in the 4 years\u00a0prior to\u00a0selling her to us. We re-registered her as a NZ ship and reverted to the old Runaway Bay name, using the sail numbers of Jubilare and to keep the vessel as it was intended, a lovely New Zealand yacht.<\/p>\n<p>Runaway Bay is a three skin kauri timber Lidgard 42 foot sloop in the &#8220;Regardless series&#8221;, (a group of yachts named after the first boat built of the series), designed by John Lidgard. They are a timeless design, strong and reliable with magnificent sailing ability. Runaway Bay was also built by the designer John Lidgard in his workshop at Auckland and launched in 1984.<\/p>\n<p>All the exterior has been fibreglassed, the interior is all kauri and teak with lovely laminated roof beams. Her cabinetry is New Zealand yacht building craftsmanship at its best.<\/p>\n<p>She has a good aft captain\u2019s cabin, a smaller guest cabin and large open saloon galley area leading into forward cabin and toilet shower area. Runaway Bay has a Spectra 180 water maker to convert sea water to fresh water. She has two solar panels and two wind generators for power supply, and the 56 HP Yanmar engine has a 160 and 80 amp alternator, all power distributed through a Hi Tec distribution centre with low Tec back up. Her navigation, radar, radio and ship to shore communication are all top of the line so owners and crew can communicate and navigate the world\u2019s oceans safely.<\/p>\n<p>John Lidgard built about twelve of these yachts and another fifteen or so have been built by other builders here and overseas. Regardless yachts have been sailed all around the Pacific and further afield winning races and giving their owners safe solid pleasurable sailing. The original\u00a0Regardless has also been restored and is now owned by Johnny Bell and sailed out of Akaroa Harbour (Christchurch).<\/p>\n<p>Runaway Bay has had many journeys up into the Pacific with her previous owners. Whilst we\u00a0owned her we sailed the Northland Coast, our favourite spot being Whangamumu Harbour, plus a\u00a0circumnavigation of the South Island returning to the North via the West Coast with our best days sail over 170 miles.We cruised in the South Pacific in 2008, spending six months between Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu and New Caledonia then since have sailed back and forth from Auckland and up to North Cape a number of times.<\/p>\n<p>My sailing experience began as a young boy and I have spent a lot of time on the water in various craft over my sailing\u00a0years. My stepfather Gilbert Hall, ex Waiuku Queen Scout, built me a small yacht to sail when I arrived from England in the early 60&#8217;s. I progressed to NZ Moth then Cherub and Flying Dutchman and then in latter years sailed a SurfCat then later owned a Quicksilver 16 trailer sailor. Christine and I bought a Compass Yachts H28 called Husvale in 2002 which we sailed out of Mill Bay Mangonui until we decided to buy a larger yacht. After much researching and looking at many vessels we settled on the Lidgard 42. I have crewed to Fiji with a couple of Swedish guys on a Halberg Rassy 42, &#8221; Albatross&#8221; in 2004, and to Vanuatu with Shane Tobin from Kaikohe on his Ganley 40\u2019 \u201cWaiora\u201d in 2005 then again Tonga back to NZ via Fiji on a Beneteau 433 2013.<\/p>\n<p>When she was out of the water in 2006 we covered Runaway Bay&#8217;s teak deck with fibreglass. Teak looks lovely but is hard to maintain and gets very hot in the tropics, and ours was starting to show signs of wear. We selected Craig Partridge Yachts of Waipapa to do the work because of Craig\u2019s reputation we felt that the job will be done to a high standard, and while she\u00a0was out of the water she\u00a0 also had a complete repaint by Ian Stewart and some cabinet work and electrical work done by Bob Evans in the navigation area to make electrical servicing easier when off shore.<\/p>\n<p>We are sure the new owner of Runaway Bay will enjoy her as much as we have.<\/p>\n<p>Our next adventure is from Plymouth England where we have bought a Dufour 405 and will sail her back to NZ during 2017 to 2018 using crew as Chrissie will nto go off shore again. Currently she is named Jambo which is Swahili for Hello which does nothing for us in New Zealand waters so will rename her &#8220;te Rere&#8221; which means in Maori &#8220;to fly&#8221; and is associated with water usually.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had owned Runaway Bay since 2005 selling her to Phil Airey from Auckland late in 2016.

The dinghy my Dad built us soon had a piece of canvas rigged as a sail. Much easier than rowing.<\/p>\n<p>After I left school, I spent a lot of time drawing boats and trying to design them. Lack of money meant only two ever got built. The first proper yacht I owned was a chine built job about 12ft 6&#8243; long. I originally sailed it around the &#8220;Sandspit&#8221; a beach on the Manuka harbour near Waiuku. Then I started working in Auckland and after a while I got it to the Waitemata Harbour. Great there until the mast got broken. I never repaired that mast. Around 1957 I designed a round-bilge 12-footer which I built using the moulded ply method. It sailed reasonably well but I found it a but too narrow at the stern, and being round bilged, was not as stable as the previous boat. Homemade sails didn&#8217;t help either but I learnt a lot. I eventually sold both of them, then bought a Zephyr dinghy hull, which I finished off. Did some sailing in that then sold it just before I went to England.<\/p>\n<p>In London, I built a plywood canoe mainly for David&#8217;s benefit and he had a lot of fun in that.<\/p>\n<p>Back in NZ we bought a Moth class yacht, for David and I to take turns in. Worked out his turn was always first and lasted about four hours. My turn amounted to one hour or less just before going home.<\/p>\n<p>When he left home, I bought a 16ft trailer-sailor for Joan and I. We enjoyed the sailing but somehow Joan always got wet and bruised when putting it back onto the trailer. So didn&#8217;t use that as much as I liked. I also bought a 10ft aluminium dinghy that was set up for sailing and had a lot of fun sailing that. But mainly a one-man boat. When my Dad passed on, I had to take my mother out, as she didn&#8217;t drive. She loved swimming and also Joan was happy doing that. So I built another yacht for myself, then we all three would go to Eastern beach where they could enjoy the beach while I went sailing. About this time, a class of sailing dinghy called a Laser was all the vogue. I couldn&#8217;t afford to buy one so I drew up something very similar in shape and size, which I built in plywood. I rigged it with an old Zephyr sail that I had available and that went very well. Used it until Mum and Joan had both passed on. Then found loading it onto the trailer was very hard going so sold that one to a neighbour.<\/p>\n<p>During 1985 I bought my first keel yacht; a Southerly 23. Very small but sailed like a dream. I introduced Shirley to sailing in Ithica and we had three seasons in that, and sailed as far as the Coromandel and the Bay of Islands. We also spent 2 \u00bd weeks on Whangarei harbour sheltering from wind and rain during Christmas and New Year 1988-89. Rather cramped for those conditions. Also she was a fibreglass boat and getting osmosis.<\/p>\n<p>The following October we bought a Raven 26. Another fibreglass boat which the seller assured me he had cured of osmosis. This problem is not curable and contributed to my deciding to sell &#8220;Ziggy Stardust&#8221;. Raven 26s are a very seaworthy boar. Stiff in a breeze and very strong also she sailed well under genoa only. So by furling the main sail we had a large reefing factor.<\/p>\n<p>Ours was a bit difficult in accommodation, as it had the main bunk-cum-seat along the starboard side and the galley facilities along the port side, with barely 18 inches between. The person sitting on the seat got in the way of the cook. But we enjoyed four years sailing in her.<\/p>\n<p>My final yacht is a Townsen 8.8 metre. Although only three feet longer than a Raven, the different interior layout made it much more convenient. The galley sink is just inside the boat, to starboard and under the hatch and with the stove opposite to port, the cook has a standing and running space clear of the two main seats-cum-bunks which are just ahead of the galley. The on deck arrangements are convenient and there is a good-sized spray dodger over the main hatch. This was originally in canvas but when that began to rot, I replaced it in timber and plywood with Perspex windows. Aalita also sails very comfortably under genoa as well.<\/p>\n<p>The hull is made of laminated timber to deck level and plywood decks. All are covered with a layer of fibreglass to keep out the marine worms. Much easier to work on than other materials.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, with my illness and loss of strength, I will not be able to sail in her again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yachting All my life I have had an interest in sailing boats.

I became interested in geography and wanting to know why hills and valleys formed where they did. I heard about this club so Joan and I joined up. Found they were more interested in cutting up stones then polishing the stones to enhance the natural colours. Quite interesting and a lot of their activity involved field trips to find the stones. Also a friendly group so we stayed on.<\/p>\n<p>After the first year or so, they talked me into becoming club president. I tried hard to make a go at that, organising guest speaker for most club nights and a fossicking trip most months.<\/p>\n<p>A little after becoming president we found we were to lose the use of the building where we had club nights. Council wanted the land for some other project and without the present building.<\/p>\n<p>After a lot of discussion, the club members decided they wanted their own club building. The Papakura Council offered us enough land at a nominal rent on another site. This we accepted and planning began. Having a carpenter and builder as club president was very useful, So over the next two years I spent more time on planning and building the club house than I did on Lapidary.<\/p>\n<p>During the time I was president, I had a lot of help from the club secretary. He was not very popular as he had a very flat and uninteresting voice. He also had a considerable knowledge about lapidary and gemmology, which he would expound upon. Most found it rather boring. But his work behind scenes was invaluable. Later there was a very unpleasant row with him and he left the club.<\/p>\n<p>But finally it was finished and officially opened. I was club president for four years then handed over to others. They had their own ideas about the club. Most of the foundation members were becoming older people and many didn&#8217;t want to go out evenings so were pushing for a Sunday afternoon club day, which clashed with the younger people who much preferred to be outdoors; and other who played other sports. Also they got lax about organising guest speakers and even fossicking trips. Thus the club drifted and I faded out of it.<\/p>\n<p>During my time as president, the club organised three or four &#8220;gem show&#8221;. Great to get a lot of people enthusiastic, but a lot of hard work which needed an energetic leader. The club used to hire the main hall in Papakura for three days. We set up lots of stands with showcases upon them in which individuals or groups could set out a display. And some very fine displays were presented. This also ended. The council wanted to increase the hall rent, which meant out income faded from reasonable to barely breaking even. Also the people who used the hall the most, a fitness club decided they wanted the hall cleared by 6pm Sunday for their basketball practice. As we wanted to be open at least until 4.30 this made one hell of a rush at the end of a tiring weekend. Another good idea ruined.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>h3>Leisure Papakura Lapidary Club late 1969 and 1970.
