Lot 41, paddled from Australia to New Zealand in 2007–08 by adventurers James Castrission and Justin Jones, is now on display in our Wharf 7 foyer. It’s just one of two incredible trans-Tasman kayaks in our collection, however, representing two incredible quests – theirs and Andrew McAuley’s, the Australian kayaker lost tragically within sight of New Zealand the previous year. Curators Daina Fletcher and Megan Treharne relate both amazing stories.
