The First Jindarra.

Originally known as Jindarra and so named by the first owner John Walker.  

The First Jindarra is undergoing a re birth.

She was sold off and her name taken away, along with the number she had sailed under for years.

The new owner was Andrew Bell, son of one of the former owners of Jindarra and under his eye, David Locke has been slowly rebuilding the boat from the inside. I'll keep adding images as the work progresses.

The next round of photos  5th of March 2014

Cork tiled floor with bench seats done in two pack, she has the over hang roof on the cabin to protect any instrumentation. Lots of bench space and the transom has been left open.  The helm now has the use of a seat on either side with a place to keep your drink bottle/beer can in case you were doing a twilite or similar. The internal hull has been spray painted (and Mariner 's cover copped a blast of overspray). A new motor has been dropped in ( I don't know what it is as yet) and possibly new sails and rigging?
