K4309 353 Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Many of you here will remember Rigger from this forum. Rigger worked as a tug boat captain at port of Tauranga. He sadly passed away last year from Parkinson's Disease. A new pilot boat has been named the Troy Evans, in honor of Rigger. It arrived today in Nelson from Melbourne, on route to Tauranga. I thought it was a nice acknowledgement of Rigger, naming the new boat after him, and that you would like to know. 8 17 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Addem 120 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Thanks for that. We'll remember every time we see the pilot passing. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
