The Famous Couta Boat- Alma Gray

John and his wife Christina are two old time Merimbula locals who share a love for the ocean and for historic boats. They stumbled across "Alma Gray" back in 2008 and have lovingly restored the Couta boat to it's former glory. The boat used to be owned by Jack Gray, who fished the waters of Merimbula since 1945.  The boat belongs to a class of boats that were designed and built specifically for the purpose of fishing barracuda and originally come from Port Phillip Bay. This is a wonderful story about an old sea dog and a very rare and beautiful boat that oozes elegance and grace.
