New to steam

Post by fiordland steamer » Sat Feb 01, 2014 12:46 pm

Its taken me almost 60 years but finally I realized an ambition to own my very own steam boat. As I live in a town adjacent to Lake Te Anau within the Fiordland National Park, I hope to get some serious cruising around the edge of the rain forest.

Welcome to the steamboaters!

Have a look at my steam boat register and get your inspirations from over 150 boats:

Welcome to the forum

I just googled Lake Te Anau. What absolutely stunning landscape! Perfect for a steamboat.
