    What I can tell you is that the little boat was called the "Highland Lass". I believe it was a converted life boat from some ship. It had an inboard single cylinder crank start marine engine (with reverse). Tiller stearing. Had a top speed of about 5 knots. It was resident on Lake Manapouri all my life and was well used, how he got it over to Stewart Island and back must have been a story in itself.
