The family wanted the yacht sold before returning to the UK where they planned to restart their lives. Conrad Gair said they were seeking a way to get the yacht - and others into New Zealand, so they could be sold. Supplied Eddie Jarman, who was 14, was struck and killed in August while snorkelling near his family's yacht in French Polynesia. Greenwood said another option would be that the family's yacht was sailed here by a New Zealand crew, but that came with a hefty price. "We've sold boats that are now sitting here, waiting for the doors to open so that people can come and pick up their boat."
