Another Island Cruise.
land yacht Ngataki is planned by the owner, Mr J. W. Wray, accompanied by Mr D. Wellington, who was a member of the crew on a similar Pacific cruise last year, and probably two others. In preparation for the trip, which will be commenced in several weeks, the Ngataki has been hauled out on Mr R. Lidgard’s slip at St Mary’s Bay to enable an overhaul to be carried out.
Mr Wray said that his present plans, w'hich were still somewhat indefinite, w’ere to sail to Tahiti and then to the Marquesas Islands, calling possibly at Sunday Island on the way. “ I propose to find a nice secluded bay in the Marquesas and there write a book of my experiences with the Ngataki since I built her a couple of years ago,” he said.
