Can't quite remember the year, I think either 1979-1980, ZK-ENY a See Bee Air Grumman Goose G-21A landed in the bay for purpose of taking people on sight seeing flights out and over the Island's.
It was an extra way of making some money for the day, after flying up from Auckland in the morning, and before returning to Auckland later in the afternoon. So good old Dad, after fronted up the cash so I could take a ride. I was on the second trip, and this photo is of the first trip returning back.
This photo is has been scanned and I took it on my first camera I owned.

You must have been 10 or 11 then ;-)
My dad owned and flew this Goose in The Marshall Islands before he sold it to the Kiwis.

This would have been Xmas of 1978-79, I was also at the Jack & Jill motor camp then and it was the first summer that Sea Bee Air had 'ENY in service. The goose was repainted in their standard livery the following autumn :)
