This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 13 December 1962, "The first of six gondolas for the "Parade of Gondolas", on Centennial Lake in January was launched at the Centennial Lake yesterday. Built from an Army assault boat, the transformation to a gondola floated without tests or worries for the builders. The craft was inspired by Army officers and the Mayor (Mr G. M. Rennie) with leading citizens."
