After lying idle in Auckland Harbour for 16 months, the Island schooner Tahitienne has been sold privately for £l5O. Last week the vessel was offered for sale at auction, but was withdrawn when she failed to attract a bid of more than” £IOO. The Tahitienne is now owned by a syndicate of Yugoslavs, who intend using the vessel for fishing. An engine to cost about £I,OOO to £1,200 is to be installed, and other alterations and repairs to the veasel are expected to increase the total cost of refitting to about £3,000. Constructed at Los Angeles in 1923, the vessel was intended for a private yacht for Captain A. C. Norton, an American master mariner, who died before she was completed. The hull was purchased by Messrs S. R. Maxwell and Company, Island traders, who fitted the ship as a trading vessel for the inter-island trade in the South Pacific, where she was under the French flag for some years. Owing to the slackness of trade she was withdrawn from commission, and later was sent, to be sold at Auckland, where she arrived on October 13, 1934. IN RADIO RANGE.
