Only in OZ.
Taconite was named after the Boing's first business of mining the mineral Taconite. It's still up in BC where she's kept in a shed out in Port Moody. I know the owner Gordy and he loves the boat. Built out of solid Teak....the hull's like 3" thick! Cool pics |

Del, fascinating. Thank-you for the update. Is she still available for charters?
I might be interested in doing a follow-up story. A few years ago I wrote an article about Boeing and the Taconite.
