Hi Ron,
You have this guy with a photo gallery, under GEOFF's AUSSIE PHOTO GALLERY.
He thinks it was sailed from California. Would you please pass this email onto him and tell him it indeed was...by me. I was 29 at the time and I took off from Ventura CA and spent about four years in the South Pacific doing the "Coconut Run." I sold UHURU in Brisbane, Australia.
I have LOTS of South Pacific photos of Uhuru. Mind you, I see some extensive cabin top modifications done. I beefed up Uhuru, but she was pretty much original.

Here is a close up photo of UHURU's builder's plate. Just to verify the hull number.
Geoff is adding a cockpit shower . . .
Seems Geoff left the bottom 'till almost last . . .
Now all that stuff is being ground off . . .
The cleaning and painting sure has paid off . . .
