H.C.S. Coasters

H.C.S. Coasters used H.C. Sleigh’s livery.

H.C.S. Coasters was incorporated in August 1933, liquidated and reformed in 1936. Although Hamilton Sleigh and nominees held its shares, Rosanoski’s account identifies Union Steam Ship of New Zealand as the real owner from the outset, with Sleigh interests as nominees and operators. H.C. Sleigh itself is stated not to have held an interest. Sleigh acted as managing agent until August 1972, when Union took direct control and the company became Abel Tasman Shipping.
