April, comments from Facebook, "I'm pretty sure you won't find any published interior shots in Australian sailing magazines, even when the production Whitings (Avaganda, Magic Dragon, Bodega etc....actually Bodega was the plug IIRC) were new. I tend to collect half tonner articles and don't know of any production production Whiting interior pics.", see: https://forums.sailinganarchy.com/index.php?/topic/22111-whiting-12-tonner/
Matt G. "I know Avaganda well, a very light and quick boat. I used to race against her in my Whiting 32 Kiwi Express. Both are 40 years old but fast boats and great fun to sail"
