Update: Return to Picton

Received the call today from Franklin's Boatyard that Rogue has arrived in Picton. Not surprisingly, there was a degree of excitement in the boating community as to her return including that of the newspaper who did the last article on Rogue's restoration.

While the trip across the Cook was planned for this weekend, it is unlikely the mast and rigging will be set up in time. Next weekend I'll be in Pelorus Sound for a week which may be a great opportunity to test her integrity before heading back to Wellington. New pictures to be posted soon!

FYI Rogue was launched November 26 1892. See various newspapers at that time.
