Thursday, November 23, 2023 at 6:56AM In the late 50’s Pete Rees built the beautiful sailboat, Toroa.
The current owners of the boat who live in Monterey, California, are researching the history of the boat, and got in touch via www.thetisposts.ca (the Blog), following their discovery of the memorial announcement for Audree.
Pete and Audree’s nephew, is contacting the owners to help them with their research on the Toroa.
Please enjoy the lovely photo of the Toroa they have shared – she’s still going strong 60+ years after being built.
