The Great Auckland Refit 2002
Three
months have been set aside from Soren Larsen's sailing
schedule to tackle planned maintenance and another stage
of the ship's restoration process. The Aft end below
decks is to be refurbished - i.e. the navigation area,
Master's, Mate's and Engineer's cabin are being totally
rebuilt. If anyone in the Auckland area is keen to come
down and lend us a hand then they should call the ship's
office.

front line: The big kauri beams that we have had milled
are now shaped to the fit the aft deck waterways - these
are the wide perimeter planks (painted grey on Soren ).
Matt and Marti have be busy on these while fit out work
progresses below.
