Did Bill Tilman have a seaworthy boat? Would it have passed your NZ
compliance rules?


It sure *looked* like a good seaworthy boat. Don't forget the safety
inspection includes the abilities of the skipper.

Hmmm, that's basically an avoidance answer. Would Tilman's boat have
passed the NZ compliance rules or not? It's a really simple question.

Since it's not available for my inspection how can I say?

You could offer an informed opinion. We all know you're not shy of
doing so on any other concievable subject. Or you could post the list
of 'must have' equipment/features that your Govt requires for allowing
you guys to sail offshore (or a link to them, I've lost the original
post) and we can judge for ourselves.
