Sanford's InDaHouse, Y'All
It was a pig of a day, but the sight of four Sanford trawlers alongside at Onehunga couldn't not be photographed, such is its rarity these days.
Mind, if Sanford do the smart thing, i.e. up sticks and move their base to the right side of town :-), such a sight may become far more common.
San Rakaia, San Hikurangi, San Tortugas and Western Ranger dominate this photo midst the driving rain, taken on 12 March 2017.

Below it, a rare sighting of sister ships San Tongariro and San Rakaia in port together, on 15 January 2018.

And at the bottom, a photo of the "San Rakaia" model on display in Auckland's National Maritime Museum, plus the accompanying info plinth.
