G50 Riwaka Boatsheds

A group of sheds across the creek from the previous painting.

G49 Riwaka Boats

This is a group of three boats that rest in mud berths near Riwaka. On the left is 'Old Jack's Spray', a replica of Joshua Slocum's boat in which he was the first to circumnavigate the globe single handed.

G46 Trawler Pacific Challenger

Two ways of fishing...

G45 Ukrainian Trawler

This is one of three Ukrainian trawlers in port at the moment. They fish under licence to Sealord. Lovely looking hulls but I dread to think what conditions are like on board.

G44 Accent on the Park

Once a fine home, now a backpacker hostel.

G43 Aurora Backpacker

Cater corner from G41 Trafalgar St
