Grand old lady under wraps

TSS Earnslaw sits under wraps while contractors replace the 1950s foredeck timbers before the steamer's 100th birthday next year.

Earnslaw, which was the main source of transport for early high-country farmers in remote areas of the Wakatipu Basin, will be operational again by July 3.
