EarthRace in Hamilton?

Guess what, coming back from Palmers (looking for some nice plants) and driving over Victoria bridge, I thought I couldn’t believe my eyes: it looked like there was the EarthRace anchored where the Waipa Delta used to take off for its dinner and sightseeing cruises. And yes, after grabbing the camera gear and driving back, it turned out that it was indeed the EarthRace!

The boat is currently on a publicity tour before heading back to Auckland and being up for sale.

Looks already impressive:

But way cooler like this:
