EASY RIDER’S<br />

TREASURE TROVE<br />

Dean Graham has been a<br />

lifelong Easy Rider fan. So<br />

much he paid $740,000 for<br />

the two Harleys used in the<br />

cult 1969 movie, including this<br />

Captain America ridden in the<br />

film by Peter Fonda. They have<br />

pride of place in his man cave.<br />

Summers<br />

sculpture<br />

set to<br />

land<br />

by Friday<br />

• By Tony Simons<br />

A $95,000 sculpture created by<br />

the late Llew Summers is likely to<br />

be in place at Mt Pleasant in time<br />

for the fourth anniversary of his<br />

death.<br />

Flight will be put on a bluestone<br />

base at the western end of the<br />

causeway on<br />

McCormacks<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> Rd next to<br />

the Mt Pleasant<br />

Community<br />

Centre by<br />

Friday. It will be<br />

a memorial to the<br />

artist who lived in<br />

the area.<br />

It will be<br />

before<br />

Llew<br />

Summers<br />

covered until an official unveiling<br />

ceremony is arranged.<br />

Flight has been sitting at the Tai<br />

Tapu Sculpture Garden but centre<br />

manager Derek McCullough said<br />

the community has now raised<br />

enough money to take ownership<br />

of the piece.<br />

“They know we’re good for the<br />

rest,” he said.<br />

Summers, who died in 2019<br />

aged 72, carved Flight in 2014<br />

then upscaled it in bronze.<br />

Diverse input in city’s future<br />

FOR THE past two years<br />

Henry Jaiswal has been part<br />

of a multicultural<br />

committee that<br />

provides advice and<br />

feedback on the<br />

views, concerns and<br />

aspirations of the<br />

city’s diverse ethnic<br />

Henry<br />

Jaiswal<br />

communities.<br />

“It’s really<br />

important that we<br />

have this voice within the<br />

Christchurch City Council,<br />

and have input from different<br />

cultures, especially<br />

from an engagement perspective,”<br />

said Jaiswal.<br />

“Christchurch is<br />

home to many diverse<br />

cultures, so we act as a<br />

conduit between these<br />

communities and the<br />

council.”<br />

Originally from<br />

India, Jaiswal was<br />

elected chair of the<br />

multicultural committee<br />

last year, which meets every<br />

six weeks.<br />

news<br />

Page 8<br />

“We are composed of<br />

around 13 representatives<br />

from different ethnic<br />

backgrounds who volunteer<br />

their time. Currently there<br />

are more than 160 ethnicities<br />

in Christchurch, but we<br />

try to have representation<br />

from some of the major<br />

groups including Chinese,<br />

Indian, Filipino, Somalian,<br />

Afghani, Irish, Russian,<br />

Colombian,” he said.<br />

Its multicultural advisory<br />

group is looking for five<br />

members to join it.<br />

The commitment is two<br />

hours every second month<br />

with the opportunity to<br />

provide advice based on<br />

said. •Transience exhibition, page 7<br />

ONE OF New Zealand’s oldest<br />

with a $72,100 heritage incentive<br />

The Malthouse building on<br />

Colombo St, Beckenham, was<br />

constructed in 1869 and is the<br />

only known example of an<br />

intact, stand-alone malthouse in<br />

the country. It was bought by the<br />

Canterbury Children’s Theatre<br />

in 1965 and has been the group’s<br />

home and venue ever since. It’s<br />

also used by community groups<br />

and Malthouse Costumes.<br />

The building is listed by<br />

Heritage New Zealand Pouhere<br />

Taonga as a category 2 historic<br />

place. The grant to support<br />

the replacement of the roof<br />

and repair the structure was<br />

approved last week by the city<br />

Motorcycles, war machines<br />

• By Daniel Alvey<br />

WHEN DEAN Graham got<br />

the opportunity to buy a part of<br />

history from his favourite movie<br />

he couldn’t turn it down.<br />

Graham, 57, bought two<br />

Harley Davidson’s used in the<br />

1969 cult classic film Easy Rider<br />

off their owner near Auckland<br />

for $740,000 about four years<br />

ago. They now sit inside his 420<br />

sq m man cave in Lincoln.<br />

“He could have asked for<br />

double and probably would have<br />

paid because it is my favourite<br />

movie,” Graham said.<br />

Easy Rider, staring Peter Fonda<br />

and Dennis Hopper, is about<br />

two bikers who travel through<br />

the United States southwest<br />

and encounter the rise of the<br />

hippie movement, drug use, and<br />

communal living.<br />

“I remember the first time dad<br />

sat me down and watched it.”<br />

His love for motorcycles<br />

came from his dad, the late<br />

Mainfreight co-founder Neil<br />

Graham who died aged 71 in<br />

2015.<br />

“Dad was into motorbikes and<br />

that was how mum met him in<br />

town on a bike.”<br />

At the time, Neil was riding<br />

a bike from British motorcycle<br />

manufacturer A. J. Stevens & Co.<br />

“When dad had his AJS or<br />

whatever out, I’d go on the back<br />

with him and I just remember<br />

the smell of him and his hair and<br />

the smell and sound of the bike<br />

and it just hooked me.”<br />

The Easy Rider motorcycles<br />

are one of the main features in<br />

his man cave, which is home to<br />

some of the 214 bikes and 29<br />

other vehicles he owns. The man<br />

cave is one many people could<br />

only dream of owning. Graham<br />

describes it as “madness”.<br />

He has collected memorabilia,<br />

military equipment and other<br />

vehicles all his life and said “it’s<br />

good to put it all under one roof”.<br />

Since 2020, Graham and<br />

his partner Liana Bush – the<br />

daughter of well-known<br />

Christchurch cyclist Ross Bush<br />

who died in the February 22,<br />

2011, earthquake when the<br />

facade of a bookstore fell onto<br />

his car while he was eating lunch<br />

on Riccarton Rd – have been<br />

curating the collection.<br />

They make sure everything<br />

has a place inside the newly-built<br />

man cave, specifically designed<br />

for Graham’s displays.<br />

Bush said: “Initially (it)<br />

HANG OUT: Dean Graham<br />

and partner Liana Bush in<br />

front of the bar inside the<br />

420 sq m man cave.<br />

PHOTOS: GEOFF SLOAN<br />

started out as wanting an area<br />

to put Dean’s motorbikes and<br />

somewhere for him to have like<br />

his own kind of space adjacent<br />

to the family home. So it started<br />

off as a small sort of project<br />

and went on to be the 420 sq m<br />

build.”<br />

The man cave now dwarfs the<br />

family home.<br />

Said Graham: “It’s been fun.<br />

It’s been long. It’s been two-anda-half,<br />

nearly three years.”<br />

The cave is almost finished<br />

and, when it is, the plan is to<br />

take groups through to see the<br />

collection.<br />

“I think it’s great, you know,<br />

and when they come, all I say to<br />

them is it’s simple if you want<br />

to come and see it, there will be<br />

a bucket at the door. Gold coin<br />

donation, and then we’ll donate<br />

it to charity.”<br />

Graham has become known<br />

for his philanthropy, which<br />

included buying a full-size<br />

cardboard Lamborghini in 2021<br />

for $10,420 which was donated to<br />

Starship Children’s Hospital.<br />

COLLECTION: Dean Graham spent for $740,000 on two Harley Davidson’s from the film Easy Rider starring Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper. He also<br />

owns a Mil 34C Hermit light helicopter, which once belonged to the Nigerian Air Force.<br />

Below – Motorcycles and film props, including a life-sized Deadpool mannequin from the Marvel movie, adorn Dean Graham’s man cave. His collection<br />

of vehicles includes a former US Army Humvee.

– and the ultimate man cave<br />

He sold the cardboard replica<br />

for $2025 and donated the<br />

money to Mike King’s mental<br />

health charity I Am Hope.<br />

Graham often pays for people’s<br />

groceries at the supermarket<br />

checkout when he sees the need.<br />

“It’s not about them going oh<br />

look, thank you to me. It’s just<br />

making them think, hey, we’re<br />

all on the planet, we’ve all got<br />

different channels we’re going<br />

down, but we’re all here and we<br />

all care.”<br />

Outside the man cave, a number<br />

of incredible items can also<br />

be found in his backyard.<br />

He owns a flying 3/4 replica<br />

P51 Mustang single-seat fighter<br />

plane built in Loburn. It’s<br />

mounted on a steel post and has<br />

been painted blue<br />

and red to look<br />

like actor Tom<br />

Cruise’s P51.<br />

Inside the<br />

cockpit,<br />

there<br />

is a<br />

mannequin<br />

dressed like<br />

Cruise’s<br />

character<br />

Pete<br />

Mitchell,<br />

known as<br />

‘Maverick’,<br />

from the film<br />

Top Gun.<br />

Also on his<br />

lawn is a Land<br />

Rover on a stump and a Mil 34C<br />

Hermit light helicopter once<br />

used by the Nigerian Air Force.<br />

Graham also has a High Mobility<br />

Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle,<br />

known as a Humvee, which<br />

was used by the United States<br />

Army during the Iraq War.<br />

As you enter his man cave<br />

there is a workshop for his<br />

bikes, a helmet room, and<br />

a wall full of old skateboards,<br />

many of which<br />

were Graham’s when he was<br />

growing up. Moving through<br />

the cave, it becomes much more<br />

homely – with a bar, sunken<br />

lounge and a Volkswagen Kombi<br />

van, which has been converted<br />

into a DJ booth.<br />

On either side of the lounge<br />

area, there are display cases with<br />

more motorcycles, one of which<br />

is a bike designed by New Zealand<br />

freestyle motocross<br />

rider Levi Sherwood. It was<br />

made for a specific trick – a<br />

double forward flip – and<br />

was the first bike Sherwood<br />

ever built.<br />

Said Graham: “The fuel<br />

tank is only big enough<br />

for a specific run time.”<br />

Going through the rest of<br />

the cave there are a number of<br />

cars, including a rare replica<br />

1965 Shelby Daytona American<br />

sports-coupé and a Holden A9X<br />

Torana.<br />

He also has many motorcycles<br />

mounted on the wall, some of<br />

which he has raced or used on<br />

the farm.<br />

“I’m glad I kept them all<br />

because they are important to<br />

me.”<br />

Graham said he can look at<br />

them and remember his past.<br />

“Some people have photo<br />

albums I just keep the bikes and<br />

know what each one means.<br />

“This cave is just a whole lot of<br />

photographs of my life and how<br />

much fun I’ve had and it’s only<br />

just begun.”<br />

Lady Tan’s Circle Of Women by Lisa See<br />

In 15th century China two women are born under the same sign, the Metal Snake.<br />

But life will take the friends on very different paths. According to Confucius,<br />

‘an educated woman is a worthless woman’, but Tan Yunxian - born into an<br />

elite family, yet haunted by death, separation and loneliness - is being raised<br />

by her grandparents to be of use. She begins her training in medicine with her<br />

grandmother and, as she navigates the male world of medicine, requiring tact and<br />

diplomacy, she struggles against the confining world of her class. From a young<br />

age, Yunxian learns about women’s illnesses, many of which relate to childbearing,<br />

alongside a young midwife-in-training, Meiling. How might a woman like Yunxian<br />

break free of tradition, go on to treat women and girls from every level of society,<br />

and lead a life of such importance that many of her remedies are still used five<br />

centuries later? How might the power of friendship support or complicate these<br />

efforts? This is a captivating story of women helping other women. It is also a<br />

triumphant reimagining of the life of a woman who was remarkable in the Ming<br />

dynasty and would be considered remarkable today.<br />

One of Them by Shaneel Lal<br />

What would you do if you were told by the people you loved the most that the way<br />

you were born was evil and wrong? For Shaneel Lal, this was their reality from the<br />

time they were five. Growing up in a tiny, traditional village in Fiji, Shaneel always<br />

knew they were different. Still, for the first years of their life, it was idyllic - playing<br />

dress-ups in saris with their sister, and hiding under their neighbour’s house,<br />

playing games with dolls. But from the time Shaneel started school, they faced<br />

condemnation from their family, and then ‘therapy’ from conservative elders in<br />

their village. The elders tried to ‘free’ Shaneel from the evil spirits they thought were<br />

making them queer. Shaneel was kept away from the girls to stop Shaneel from<br />

becoming more feminine, and from the boys to stop Shaneel’s queerness from<br />

spreading to them. Eventually the ‘therapy’ escalated to beatings and torture. After<br />

escaping Fiji and moving to New Zealand as a teenager, Shaneel tried to keep their<br />

sexuality - and gender - to themself, but gradually found the courage to come out.<br />

This is a story of one person’s fight for the right to live their life as they deserved -<br />

and their extraordinary work to protect other young New Zealanders.<br />

FLEETING: August’s exhibition at Stoddart Cottage,<br />

Ephemeral, is by Olga Parr and Veronika Ek.<br />

Exhibition explores states of transience<br />

A NEW exhibition at Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong>’s Stoddart Cottage<br />

focuses on impermanence.<br />

In Ephemeral, artists Olga Parr<br />

and Veronika Ek present states of<br />

transience, both human and in<br />

the natural world.<br />

Ek uses photography to draw<br />

attention to the nature, light<br />

and tranquility of the Banks<br />

Peninsula, while Parr captures<br />

moments of passing emotion and<br />

natural beauty in pastel, watercolour,<br />

charcoal and ink.<br />

Both artists also embrace<br />

aspects of minimalism: Ek in<br />

landscapes themselves and Parr<br />

in her regular use of empty<br />

space.<br />

Ek is a mixed media artist<br />

whose practice spans painting<br />

and photography. She moved to<br />

New Zealand from Norway six<br />

years ago, and was immediately<br />

inspired by the Banks Peninsula<br />

landscapes that feature in the<br />

exhibition.<br />

While she has focused<br />

on painting in recent years,<br />

in Ephemeral she presents the<br />

stunning photographs that<br />

inspired them. Through these<br />

images of nature she seeks to<br />

convey a sense of calm and<br />

tranquility.<br />

Born in St Petersburg and<br />

living in multiple countries<br />

before settling in New Zealand,<br />

Parr exchanged her initial<br />

career in astronomy for creative<br />

work – photography, teaching,<br />

illustration, graphic design, and<br />

her own arts practice.<br />

Working predominantly with<br />

pastel and watercolour, Parr<br />

is interested in celebrating the<br />

beauty of ephemeral moments.<br />

She is the recipient of numerous<br />

awards, and has her artwork in<br />

private collections in Russia,<br />

Europe, Japan, USA, Australia<br />

and New Zealand.<br />

• Ephemeral opens on<br />

Saturday, August 5 from<br />

2-4pm and runs until<br />

August 27 at Stoddart<br />

Cottage. Opening hours<br />

are 10am-4pm Fridays,<br />

Saturdays and Sundays,<br />

HISTORIC: The bell<br />

was collected from<br />

Rangi Ruru by<br />

Billy Williams from<br />

the Deep Cove<br />

Outdoor Education<br />

Trust with deputy<br />

principal Stephanie<br />

Barnett on hand to<br />

see it off.<br />

presented to Rangi<br />

Rangi’s old bell on the move<br />

• By Briar Allen<br />

THE OLD school bell that used<br />

to ring out over Rangi Ruru Girls’<br />

School has returned home to<br />

Fiordland.<br />

The bell originally came from<br />

the ocean liner, MS Wanganella,<br />

which was launched in 1929. The<br />

ship travelled between New Zealand<br />

and Australia for about 15<br />

years before running aground in<br />

Wellington <strong>Harbour</strong> in 1947.<br />

It was then refloated and<br />

became a floating hostel in Deep<br />

Cove, Doubtful Sound, for workers<br />

on the Manapouri hydroelectric<br />

power scheme.<br />

Rangi Ruru deputy principal<br />

Stephanie Barnett said the bell<br />

was with the school for about 60<br />

years.<br />

“It is an important part of<br />

New Zealand maritime history,”<br />

Barnett said.<br />

“It has not been hung here at<br />

the school for a number of years,<br />

and we are so pleased to pass on<br />

the care-taking of the bell to the<br />

trust and are excited to hear the<br />

bell ring once again.”<br />

The bell was presented to the<br />

school in 1964 by Bob Round<br />

who was an engineer while the<br />

ship was in Deep Cove and whose<br />

daughter Elizabeth was a student<br />

at the school. It was placed in the<br />

Margaret Patrick Courtyard and<br />

served as the school bell for many<br />

years. It then went into storage<br />

and the MS Wanganella was<br />

eventually sold for scrap.<br />

The bell has been borrowed by<br />

Billy Williams from the Deep<br />

Cove Outdoor Education Trust<br />

and is on a long-term loan. It will<br />

be hung by Meridian Energy at the<br />

trust’s base in Deep Cove.<br />

Feeling bloated<br />

or have a sore stomach?<br />

The Soothe Study is recruiting now.<br />

We are looking for people with functional dyspepsia (indigestion) to<br />

participate in a research study investigating the digestive health effects<br />

of consuming mānuka honey.<br />

Symptoms of functional dyspepsia include:<br />

• pain or burning in the stomach, bloating, excessive belching (burping)<br />

or nausea after meals<br />

• an early feeling of fullness when eating<br />

• pain in the stomach that may sometimes occur unrelated to meals or<br />

may be relieved by eating.<br />

After a two-week lead-in period, we will provide you with mānuka honey<br />

or a honey-like product to eat before breakfast and dinner every day for<br />

six-weeks. Two weeks later we will again ask you about your functional<br />

dyspepsia symptoms.<br />

The time commitment for this study will be about 10 hours and you will<br />

attend six clinic visits in total. You will receive up to $220 in supermarket<br />

vouchers in recognition of the actual or reasonable costs associated with<br />

participating in this study (e.g., parking and/or travel costs).<br />

If you experience symptoms of functional dyspepsia, and are aged<br />

18 to 70 years we would love to hear from you.<br />

Wave’s season a turnaround in form<br />

Sumner has ended its<br />

Metro Premier rugby<br />

season on a high,<br />

winning the plate.<br />

Jaime Cunningham<br />

reports<br />

IT WAS a fitting finish to the<br />

season for the Sumner Wave<br />

on Saturday, rounding off their<br />

solid year by securing the Metro<br />

Premier plate with a 20-17 win<br />

over Burnside.<br />

The game marked the ninth<br />

win, and meant the Wave<br />

finished the season with a perfect<br />

record at St Leonards Square.<br />

Head coach<br />

Gareth D’almeida<br />

said winning<br />

the plate was the<br />

“bare minimum”,<br />

after going down<br />

to New Brighton<br />

25-21 in the<br />

elimination final<br />

Gareth<br />

D’almeida<br />

earlier this month.<br />

“We were really<br />

disappointed after<br />

the close New<br />

Brighton loss,” he said.<br />

“We had to reset our goals and<br />

winning the plate was our new<br />

one.”<br />

In typical Wave fashion, it was<br />

a slow start to the plate final,<br />

trailing by two tries in the early<br />

stages and 14-7 at the half.<br />

ON THE RUN: Sumner first five George Worboys prepares to offload in the plate final win<br />

“I think we had to make some<br />

adjustments at halftime, as we<br />

couldn’t play how we wanted to<br />

in the weather,” D’almeida said.<br />

However, the Wave’s came back<br />

in the second half, preventing<br />

Burnside from scoring in the last<br />

40 minutes.<br />

The Wave not only secured the<br />

plate, but it was also their fifth<br />

win at home this season.<br />

D’almeida said remaining<br />

unbeaten at St Leonards was<br />

his highlight of the season as a<br />

coach.<br />

“It was a highlight for me<br />

personally, as we also remained<br />

unbeaten at home when I was<br />

coach of the colts side which went<br />

back-to-back (in 2020 and 2021),”<br />

he said.<br />

“But the Lincoln University<br />

game where we came back<br />

against a quality side like that<br />

was also quite impressive.”<br />

The season under D’almeida<br />

was a turnaround in form<br />

compared to last year, where<br />

the Wave managed three wins –<br />

and just one in the round robin<br />

stages.<br />

Finals were largely determined<br />

by bonus points this season,<br />

with third-placed Lincoln<br />

University, seventh-placed<br />

Sumner and the teams between<br />

all winning seven games in the 11<br />

rounds.<br />

While Sumner were unable<br />

to progress into the top six,<br />

D’almeida was content with the<br />

team’s season as a whole.<br />

“It was not a bad season<br />

compared to where they won<br />

three games last year,” he<br />

said.<br />

“We’ve beat quality sides like<br />

Old Boys who are in the final this<br />

weekend.”<br />

However, it’s been a case of<br />

‘what ifs’ for Sumner this year,<br />

with the team only receiving<br />

three home games in the<br />

round-robin stage due to game<br />

management issues last year.<br />

‘I’m happy to be coming back’<br />

• From page 10<br />

D’almeida said the lack of<br />

home games compared to<br />

other teams, who had six in<br />

the first round, impacted the<br />

Wave’s chances of a higher<br />

placing this year.<br />

“We quietly joke about<br />

home games as coaches,<br />

but it’s a huge advantage for<br />

teams,” he said.<br />

D’almeida will have the<br />

chance to build on the Wave’s<br />

success next season, after confirming<br />

he will return as head<br />

coach for a second year.<br />

“I’m happy to be coming<br />

back,” he said.<br />

“We’ll rebuild next year<br />

with obviously a few players<br />

leaving, but also some coming<br />

back.”<br />

As The Crowe flies<br />

The Trevor Crowe story by steve holmes<br />

From Trevor Crowe’s childhood escapades growing up in a<br />

working-class Christchurch neighbourhood, to his formative<br />

years in and around the motor trade, and his long list of<br />

successes, achievements and the challenges faced along the<br />

way, As the Crowe Flies shares the epic tale of one of New<br />

Zealand’s great adventurers.<br />

For many, Trevor is best known for his motor-racing exploits,<br />

but he is a competitor in every sense, far beyond the<br />

racetrack. From running marathons, tackling the Coast to<br />

Coast, and even risking life and limb in the notorious<br />

Maratón Náutico del Río Balsas Mexican powerboat<br />

race, his story is an inspirational one.<br />

This most remarkable Kiwi, with his ever-positive<br />

attitude, boundless energy, and addictive sense<br />

of humour, works alongside author Steve Holmes<br />

to chronicle his most fascinating life,<br />

a life lived to the full.<br />

from There to here<br />

books<br />

A memoir from the award-winning nz columnist, teacher,<br />

From Willingdon to Lyttelton, a memoir about love, learning and the<br />

journey to thirty.<br />

Joe Bennett is the author of countless columns, over twenty books, and<br />

now, at long last, a memoir. From There to Here describes a childhood of<br />

fishing, cricket, friends, a dog, some mild molestation and a few deaths.<br />

There's the long-haired gloom and vehemence of adolescence. There's love<br />

and heartache, an urge to write and a fruitless struggle against teaching<br />

for a living. Superbly written, of course, and laugh-out-loud funny in<br />

places, but it's also honest, unsparing, unexpected and moving.<br />

'Every now and then in the twilight the door of the pub would open and<br />

emit a great sough of smoke and light and adult laughter and it seemed<br />

the most wonderful place in the world, the place you wanted to be.'<br />

TREASURES FROM THE PAST<br />

The Miller boat slip<br />

at Corsair <strong>Bay</strong><br />

IN 1861, the quiet bay just<br />

around the corner from the port<br />

of Ōhinehou Lyttelton, known to<br />

local Māori as Motu-kauati-iti,<br />

acquired the English name of<br />

Corsair <strong>Bay</strong> when a strong southwester<br />

drove Captain Thomas<br />

Gay’s brigantine, the Corsair,<br />

onto the rocks there.<br />

Motu-kauati-iti Corsair <strong>Bay</strong>’s<br />

sheltered waters were a favourite<br />

swimming spot in the late 1800s,<br />

especially after the local beach –<br />

and site of the Māori settlement<br />

of Ōhinehou – at Dampier <strong>Bay</strong><br />

disappeared beneath the land<br />

reclamation using spoil from<br />

the 1867 Lyttelton rail tunnel<br />

construction.<br />

While Corsair <strong>Bay</strong>’s was a<br />

popular swimming spot, its<br />

shores were given over to the<br />

colonial industries of the day,<br />

such as an abattoir with bloody<br />

runoff that unfortunately also<br />

attracted the harbour’s sharks:<br />

for that reason, among others,<br />

it was moved to neighbouring<br />

Motu-kauati-rahi Cass <strong>Bay</strong><br />

in the 1880s. Along with<br />

William Langdown’s (later<br />

Prisk and Williams’) brick kiln,<br />

the bay also accommodated<br />

Miller boat slip at Corsair <strong>Bay</strong> c. 1890s. Te Ūaka The Lyttelton<br />

shipbuilding, with the Glasgowbuilt<br />

paddle wheel steamer and<br />

river ferry Avon being assembled<br />

there in February 1860. For a<br />

time, the Lyttelton Rifle Club,<br />

formed in the 1860s, operated a<br />

shooting range in the bay.<br />

In 1874, one of Whakaraupō<br />

Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>’s first<br />

European shipbuilders, Malcolm<br />

Miller, with sons Archie and<br />

Jack, built their shipyard and<br />

slipway in Corsair <strong>Bay</strong>. Malcolm<br />

Miller had been born in 1838 in<br />

Lochranza, a fishing village on<br />

the Isle of Arran, Firth of Clyde,<br />

Scotland. In 1862 he relocated<br />

to Dunedin, along with many<br />

other Scotsmen of his generation,<br />

during the Otago gold rush.<br />

Establishing himself initially<br />

in Invercargill as a shipwright,<br />

he married Mary MacDonald<br />

in 1863. The family moved<br />

through Picton, Greymouth and<br />

Whanganui before eventually<br />

settling in Lyttelton in 1874.<br />

The Miller family’s shipwright<br />

operations at Corsair <strong>Bay</strong><br />

specialised in the construction<br />

and maintenance of coastal<br />

vessels, with the boat slip capable<br />

of handling craft of up to 70<br />

tonnes. This included Malcolm<br />

Miller’s own, soon to be famous,<br />

racing yacht, Pastime.<br />

Constructed in 1886, Pastime<br />

was the major competitor for<br />

the champion yacht Little<br />

Wonder, a creation of the<br />

equally renowned Sinclair<br />

family of Lyttelton shipbuilders.<br />

In a demonstration of Miller’s<br />

shipwright credentials, Pastime<br />

secured both a strong victory in<br />

the Lyttelton Regatta of 1890 and<br />

its status as champion yacht of<br />

the day.<br />

The Miller shipyard remained<br />

in Corsair <strong>Bay</strong> for 33 years before<br />

finally moving to the Lyttelton<br />

Port facilities in 1907 when<br />

the bay was redeveloped by the<br />

Lyttelton Borough Council and<br />

declared a ‘pleasure resort for the<br />

public of Canterbury’.<br />

After Malcolm Miller’s demise<br />

in 1909, the family business<br />

was assumed by his eldest<br />

son, Malcolm James (‘Jimmy’)<br />

Miller. Jimmy had substantial<br />

involvement in property matters<br />

and served as the Mayor of<br />

Lyttelton from 1910 to 1913.<br />

In 1913, the business<br />

transitioned to his brother,<br />

John D Miller, who maintained<br />

control until his death in<br />

1920. Subsequently, the family<br />

business was entrusted to his<br />

son, Malcolm’s grandson, Alex<br />

Miller.<br />

Despite the loss of a leg during<br />

his service in Belgium in World<br />

War I, Alex upheld the family’s<br />

fine shipbuilding tradition for<br />

several decades.<br />

Known as the ‘one-legged<br />

yachtsman’, he continued to<br />

successfully compete in yacht<br />

racing, taking full ownership of<br />

Pastime in 1934.<br />

Mercedes EQE breathtakingly quick<br />

Motoring with Bob Nettleton<br />

IN THE last three years<br />

Mercedes Benz has amped up its<br />

quest to become a luxury electric<br />

vehicle game changer, with its<br />

efforts being spearheaded by the<br />

EQ range.<br />

Among them is the futuristically<br />

styled and breathtakingly<br />

quick EQE AMG, one of the hottest-ever<br />

Mercedes Benz sedans<br />

priced at a cool $220,000.<br />

Just months after the launch of<br />

the large luxury EQS, the EQE is<br />

the next model series to be based<br />

on architecture Mercedes Benz<br />

developed specifically for its<br />

electric models.<br />

Riding on a slightly shorter<br />

wheelbase than the EQS, with<br />

shorter overhangs and more<br />

recessed flanks, the EQE remains<br />

a substantial high-end luxury<br />

sedan. Interior space exceeds<br />

the comparable ICE (Internal<br />

Combustion Engine) Mercedes-<br />

Benz E-Class, including interior<br />

length (+ 80mm) and front<br />

shoulder room (+ 27mm). The<br />

EQE comfortably accommodates<br />

up to five people even on longer<br />

journeys.<br />

It brings sharp styling and attitude,<br />

along with a level of standard<br />

equipment and refinement to<br />

what is regarded as an all-electric<br />

alternative to the legendary<br />

Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan.<br />

A three-model range is<br />

offered here and put its best foot<br />

forward with the entry level<br />

and attractively priced $132,100<br />

EQE. After more power and<br />

technology? That is offered in<br />

abundance in the $145,000n 350<br />

version featuring Mercedes Benz<br />

4MATIC AWD system. Then<br />

there’s the X-factor $200k plus<br />

AMG 53 4MATIC. All EQE’s are<br />

covered by a five-year unlimited<br />

kilometre warranty and 10 years<br />

or up to 250,000km, whatever<br />

comes first.<br />

The EQE 53 4MATIC+ dual<br />

electric motors generate an epic<br />

460 kW of power and a staggering<br />

950 Nm of torque. Their<br />

combined might hurtles the car<br />

0 to 100 km/h in a mind bending<br />

3.5 seconds – all with a handy<br />

maximum real world all-electric<br />

driving range of 500km. This is<br />

around 90km less electric range<br />

than the other two versions.<br />

The fit and finish of the<br />

generously proportioned<br />

passenger compartment is<br />

outstanding, along with a<br />

driving position that’s close<br />

to perfection. Both front seats<br />

are heated and electrically<br />

adjustable, while a panoramic<br />

sliding sunroof lighten ups your<br />

world and senses at the touch of<br />

a button.<br />

On board is the latest<br />

generation of the MBUX<br />

multimedia system, including<br />

MBUX Navigation. A large<br />

centrally mounted LED screen<br />

includes a fingerprint scanner<br />

to activate driver profiles. It’s<br />

hard not to be impressed by the<br />

quality surround sound system,<br />

smartphone integration for<br />

Apple and Android devices.<br />

A smart Driving Assistance<br />

Package includes Active Distance<br />

Assist, Active Brake Assist<br />

with cross-traffic function, Active<br />

Lane Change Assist, Active<br />

Blind Spot Assist, Active Lane,<br />

all making for one highly active<br />

vehicle.<br />

AIRMATIC air suspension<br />

enhanced the test vehicles ride<br />

and all round poise. Rear-axle<br />

steering shortens the turning<br />

circle during cornering and<br />

parking, and delivers better<br />

steering response. Comfort for<br />

a serious high performance<br />

sedan is excellent, and free of the<br />

sometimes abrasive low-speed<br />

ride associated with this type of<br />

model.<br />

Handling is right out of the<br />

top draw thanks to a superbly<br />

designed, engineered and tuned<br />

suspension providing prodigious<br />

levels of grip. In fact I felt at<br />

times the test vehicle was ‘super<br />

glued’ to the road surface. With<br />

the lithium-ion battery forming<br />

part of the vehicles floor you<br />

have the ideal low centre of<br />

gravity. This further improves<br />

what’s an already incredibly<br />

well balanced and agile full size<br />

luxury sedan.<br />
