Notes

5.5 AUS 8 - Boat search - 23.05.2023 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
As only a historic information was noted, that the boat was last seen in Queensland, but no proof of her current location is available, the search is on.
5.5 K 2 "Huney" - C&N sister to K 1 - 24.12.2020 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
This boat was built with building number 772 at Camper & Nicholsons, for Angus Orr. C&N is stating the boat to be a sisterboat to 5.5 K 1 "The Deb" (#762).
5.5 KA 8 - boats - 09.11.2017 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
A boat called "Burrabra", so far associated with sailnumber 5.5 KA 81, is now believed to having been sailed as KA-8 as well. Still, if so, it would rather be KA-8b, as "Burrabra" is meant to be a 1967 built boat. Who has more info?
Correction, 13th May 2018: KA 81 (1967) is apparently not another KA 8.
5.5 KA-8 "Huney" - 06.03.2010 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
Warren Muir reports: "...KA-8, "Huney"... She was bought to Australia and owned by Fred Harris approx 1960.."
