Historic H.S.L.

My Dad was a mechanic on one of the RNZAF Miami Crash Boats in the Pacific during 1944-45, hence my interest in this type of craft.

He also used the RNZAF Seaplane Tenders when stationed at Hobsonville.

The above photo was taken by my Dad at Massau Harbour, from Kwan Wha's House, 1945
