A new forum for Tahiti Ketch owners, and aficionados (or simply the
curious) is underway at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tahiti_ketch/
This group's intent is to share information, ideas, and voyaging
stories to all the admirers of John Hanna's Tahiti Ketch. Owners
interested in restoring or maintaining and improving their vessels are
especially welcomed to share techniques and ideas that worked or words
of encouragement.

I am in the process of restoring my Tahiti Ketch TOREA for a passage to
Tahiti in 2006. Like others, I would welcome the help and inspiration
a group provides. Since I work at a maritime museum I am also
interested in building an archive on this remarkable little vessel, her
many incarnations, and well as voyages around the world.

"Poke her nose to the mornin' sun,
On a tide that's ebbin, speedy-
Start her sheets to the breeze fresh run,
On a slant for old Tahiti."

Was Torea berthed in Ventura Harbor, CA, sometime during the '80's or '90's?
I remember a sweet little Tahiti on a nearby dock some time during those
years.
