Soft cover. Condition: VG. No Jacket. Photos, Map (illustrator). 1st. Charlie Heberley was the last of that band of rugged NZ men who went out to sea in search of whales. Ironically, in the years before his death in 2000 Charlie became a passionate coservationalist, critical of those nations that insisted on continued whaling. This story is, however, built around the final whaling ventures in NZ, with Charlie working from stations in the Tory Channel and on Great Barrier Island. The Heberley family had an affinity with the sea, so it was probably inevitable that Charlie would continue the association. He first became active in the whaling trade in 1941, on-shore at the new station of the Perano family in Tory Channel, By 1943 he had become one of the gunners, taking over on the chaser Awatea from a predecessor killed when the harpoon gun breech exploded. These Marlborough Sounds whalers operated from small, fast motorboats capable of 30mph on 300/400 hp motors. The catchers were supported by the mothership Tuatea. By the 1950s whales were becoming scarce in Tory Channel waters and as the catch decreased so did Charlie's income. The book is redolent with, in addition to great whaling stories and anecdotes, Marlborough Sounds history, its personalities, the life style of people living largely in isolation, with farming and its associated activities, plus fishing, to provide employment between whaling seasons. In the late 1950s Charlie was invited to manage a new whaling station established by an Australian company on Great Barrier Island, in the Hauraki Gulf. So in 1959 Charlie and family moved north. It was Charlie's expertise in operating fast motor boat catchers that impressed the directiors of Barrier Whalers and in the first year of operations (1960) 104 whales were taken, but the whaling revival was to be short-lived and the Great Barrier station was closed in 1963 and the last NZ whaling station, the Perano's in Tory Channel, followed in 1964. By then Charlie and close family were back in the Sounds where he died in 2000, a man who had once hunted whales and in later life championed the cause of whale protection and conservation. Heather Heberley, Charlie's daughter-in-law, has provided a fascinating story, recalling the last days of NZ whaling. First edition from Cape Catley of 2002, 212 pages including bibliography,16 colour photos, 34 b/w photos, map, two pages reproduced newspaper clippings. Pictorial card covers are VG with light wear to corners and edges, ink gift inscription on half-title, crease to top corner page 101 with light smudging, slight undulations to half-title/title page, text block otherwise VG.

Soft Covers. Condition: VG+. No Jacket. Photos, Map, Diagram (illustrator). 1st. Sub-titled "The Mystery of the Mikhail Lermontov (ML)" Tom O'Connor's study of the loss of this massive cruise liner in 1986 in constricted waters in Queen Charlotte Sound, (at the northern tip of NZ's South Island), examines all; the events leading up to the ship's grounding, its eventual loss, the rush to evacuate the more then 400 passengers and 300+ crew members in a hazardous and much delayed night-time rescue. Fortunately there was only fatality, one of the ship's refrigeration engineers, who was below decks close to where the ship first struck rocks. As a journalist working in the area where the ML was lost the author was familiiar with the sequence of events, had good contacts and the decision to produce the book had its catalyst in his news coverage of the saga. The result is a well-rounded, comprehensive and factual account of all aspects, with the rescue effort (delayed by the reluctance by the master of the ML to act) particularly graphic and including interviews with a number of passengers. many from Australia and well as NZers --- the ship was bound for Sydney with a planned visit to Milford Sound. Formal inquiries into the loss of the ML failed to establish why the pilot at the time, a competant master mariner and harbourmaster at Picton, where th ML had been berthed that day, should attempt to navigate the huge ship through a narrow channel. This was remarkable in view of his expert knowlege of the Sound. and its hazards. In the backround is the sub-plot of the difficulties being experienced in the Marlborough Harbour Board of which the harbour master was then the board's acting chief executive. Tom O'Conner has woven a fascinating account of NZ's most sensational maritime accident. He asked all the right questions about the wreck, explored all the conspiracy theories, but was unable to solve the mystery of "Why? the ML was directed into such tight and treacherous waters. First edition of 1999 ,200 pages including bibliography and glossary, 26 colour photos, six b/w photos plus drawing of ML and map of Queen Charlotte Sound. Colour pictorial card covers VG+ with light crease lower front corner, internally excellent, no inscriptions.
