Hi Flyer 0 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Hey fellas hoping you can help. I've bought a davidson 26 called hi flyer, it used to race out of bbyc. The deck gear and mast/ rigging has all been removed and im trying to piece it back together. Any pics would be awesome! Looks like a fast boat so I'm sure there are plenty of pics of the stern?

OYSTR 1 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Can't help with pics but presume you've googled and seen this older Crew post about sister boat Blackfun with Facebook link. May be some help there. http://crew.org.nz/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=16310 Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Hi Flyer was similar to Black Fun but a bit heavier as she was in timber, Black Fun was glass and super-light in comparison. Here's a pic of Black Fun when I had her - I'm pretty sure Hi Flyer still had the inline rig in her when I last saw her a few years ago so similar in layout. EE Link to post Share on other sites

Norwegian Blue 10 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 You are welcome to have a look at Infiltrator for our current layout. We have changed heaps from previous owners and simplified where ever possible. Link to post Share on other sites

MuzzaB 14 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 That fuzzy old photo is mine. I took it when she was just launched - it may even have been her maiden sail. It was well before the Quarter Ton Worlds. The photo was taken in Motuhei Channel. That's Neil Pryde and Helmer Pedersen right there. Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Hi, you might be in luck, I took a heap of shots of HF at the BBYC marina for the eventual Blackfun syndicate from Wellington - may still have them somewhere. PM me if you still want some shots. Not sure how many are rig shots. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
