A website
dedicated to the RANGITIKI, one of the three famous
Rangi~Boats, from the fleet of cargo/liners of the New Zealand
Shipping Company, which sailed in deep water in the golden age
of British shipping.

This site also pays tribute to all the men and women who sailed in
her, particularly my father,
C.Philip "Mick" Overall, who joined the 'Tiki on her
second voyage in 1929 and stayed with her until the final voyage in
1962 |

This site is
intended to be a permanent work in progress.

Retirement has found me so much to
do that the Rangitiki has been pretty much neglected over the
past several months. Now it's time to actually get down
to it so please come aboard again in a week or so's time to
find "new" photographs, anecdotes and information.
A reminder ~ for the time being, the link to the MEMORIES page
will be found at the top of the LINKS page. However, during
this next refit period, this section will become independent
of MEMORIES. One thing is certain, A new page devoted to
RMS Ruahine featuring some further great material from Dr.
John Happs will be installed. Now imagine
a big smiley face right here.
