Chill Pill 1 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Hi, Are there any Beneteau First 40.7's in New Zealand? I have had a quick look on YNZ and Racetrack but nothing pops up. Any leads would be appreciated. Cheers Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B00B00 306 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 There was one called Vilda Hilda that was in Whangarei. Pelle Peterson who used to own Doyles Whangarei owned it but has since sold it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ballystick 72 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Vilda Hilda was sold to a Tauranga resident and renamed La Rochelle, I think there is also another one in Whangarei and for sale recently on Trademe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chill Pill 1 Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Looks like La Rochelle is active racing in Tauranga. Now to track down the owner! Thanks for the lead's guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
