Summary

[edit]



Description
English: This photo is part of the Australian National Maritime Museum’s William Hall collection. The Hall collection combines photographs from both William J Hall and his father William Frederick Hall - the latter of which is likely to have taken this image.

The vessel HOANA was built in 1925 and raced with SASC for a short period before being wrecked in a storm. The owner commissioned a new, almost identical yacht with the same name. Meanwhile the wreck was salvaged by HOANA's original builders and rebuilt.
That this vessel is likely to be the first HOANA is due to the position of the sail number. While both the first and then the second HOANA carried the number 'A5' at SASC in the 1920s and 1930s, the first HOANA had the number right at the top of the mainsail as on this photo, but the second HOANA had the number further down the sail.
