Oimara is a 42 foot timber ketch designed by Ned Jack and built by Jack Brothers in Tasmania and launched in 1903. She took part in various Bass Strait races and the first trans-Tasman race in 1931 with its then owner Frank 'Doc' Bennell. Oimara is on the register of historic vessels having been built in Tasmania in 1903. In 2006 she was aquired by a shipwright/surveyor based out of Proserpine in North Queensland and he spent 11 years lovingly restoring her and updated systems. She is currently berthed in Townsville and she sails as beautifully as she did originally. We have a lot of history to share as well as newspaper clippings from back in the day of her exploits and successful racing career. She would love to be back in Tasmania and she would be an incredible training vessel or used within a school of boatbuilding.
