The ferries Rangatira and Hinemoa in Wellington

The ferries Rangatira and Hinemoa in Wellington

Seen here at Wellington in 1951, the Rangatira (left), which was delivered in 1931, and the Hinemoa (right), which entered service in 1947, were near-sisters. The two ships served together until the mid-1960s.
