I remember when her predecessors the Ngakuta and Ngatoro first appeared on the NZ coast, a big change in design from the traditional USSCo. vessels.
At the time I thought they looked pretty radical, having no derricks and all.
Regards Tony.

Also notice the smoke from the funnel smoking towards forward of the ship.
Everything on this photo is exciting, and I like the photo and the ship's superstructure very-very much!
