Albert Strange's Lula design, colourised by Rod Brink

Agustina Sailed The River Plate
Built as Lula, by 1911 this tiny boat was stationed in Buenos Aires. By 1923 she had been renamed Agustina, a feminine version of the name Augustine, popular in Argentina. I have no information about her after 1924. However, for more information about Argentine Yachting in 1922, and three Harrison Butler yachts stationed there in the 1920s, visit the Pengüino archive.
