Tristan Nelson-Hauer's Old Spice, a Falcon 24, SOLD, Half Moon Bay, Auckland, New Zealand (updated February 13, 2014)
 
   

February 13, 2014. Tristan advised today that Old Spice has been sold. We stand by for the new owner to check in. Tristan has some stuff left over and we'll list them here and wish Fair Winds and Calm Seas

HI Ron, 
Thanks for doing that. Im sad to see her go. However, I'm happy to say she sold today. I have a few bits and pieces that I am selling separately if any of your followers are interested? I will send you the links tomorrow if you wish?
Standing by for the links
I have the following:

>Raymarine ST100+
>15" Magma Kettle BBq
>Kite from a Reactor 24
>Yanmar YSE8 I pulled it out as there was an oil leak from around the governor shaft and I found a 2nd hand engine which was easier for me to solve the issue with. It was running fine when it came out. I am realistic as to what i want for it if anyone is interested?
>Plough 15 and chain. (was my spare)
>Folding Grapnel 2.5kg and chain. unused.
>Maxxon 2.4 (i think, Ill measure tomorrow) and 3yr old Mercury 3.3hp There is a small leak in the keel, nothing to worry about. A few pumps every other day sorts it..

Let me know your thoughts. I hope the new owner keeps her name - its been my brand for over 50 years!!

Kind regards,

Tristan

October 1, 2011. Tristan has checked in with Old Spice. Here is the email.

HI Ron,

Sorry it has taken so long for me to get back to you. I have just pulled Old Spice out for some maintenance and I will get updated photos to you soon.

Also, by chance, I was just reading about Steve Somerville's Festina Lente and I too have had visions of my rig coming down, so I will be sure to check my chain plate bolts next time I am on the boat!

Kind regards,

Tristan

January 21, 2012. Per a recently received New Zealand Yachting list this boat was at the Bucklands Beach Yacht Club at Half Moon Bay, Auckland and, perhaps, had a former owner, Rebekah Judd?
