Loss of virginity - on air that is!

Hi Thomas, thanks m8t, always nice to get some feedback. Malcolm was good to interview.  He also has a lot of stories re Maritime History around the Hauraki Gulf - being a farmer, shifting stock around etc on the old scows (wooden shallow-drafted sailing vessels used for freight at the turn of the century). 

regards, Clive
