With the blessing of Daina Shipping (Rena's Owners), Captain Kevin Judkins has published a book of his personal story and photographic record during the salvage operation.
The book '120 Days at Astrolabe' contains Kevin's personal diary and hundreds of unpublished photographs taken by him and others at the wreck site.
It's a fabulous record of the operation, from the perspective of a professional mariner experiencing a once in a lifetime event up close and very personal.
The book is self-published and can be purchased direct by contacting the author at rena120daysatastrolabe@yahoo.com
Drop Kevin an email and get your copy mailed to you from New Zealand.
