Scrounger, a Falcon 24, Moored at Opua, Bay of Islands, New Zealand (updated January 20, 20120  
   

January 20, 2012. We first heard of this boat on November 1, 2009 when Steve Somerville (Festina Lente) brought the ad on Trade Me listing her for sale. We could not quite make out her name from the picture in the ad (see below), and as efforts to reach the owner were unsuccessful, Plan B went into effect - wait.

We waited and yesterday, DFI Giles Grimstone (Summer Wine) was able to get the name of the boat. He was able to talk to the then owner of Scrounger and determined that he had owned the boat from 1997 to 2010 when she was sold. We are standing by for further information.

Stay tuned

November 1, 2009 - DFI/FFI Steve Somerville (Festina Lente) sent in the following email regarding 2 Falcon 24s for sale in New Zealand. Below is the ad for the "Opua" Falcon. To go to the Coq au Vin ad click here

Enclosed is a link to take you to adverts on New Zealand’s Trade Me. For ‘Coq au Vin’ from the listings.  It has no owner's details. I have tried to email to find out, but being a dealer they don’t want to talk to me!

The second one (at left) - I can't make out the name however you might as well have it for the record anyway. Hope all is going well.
