The Zame family has been fishing off the Gisborne coast for 75 years. Simon Farrell-Green talks to a fourth-generation member of the clan about honouring the past while future-proofing the business. Unfortunately this article is not longer available online, but some historical info and old photos of brothers Salvatore and Antonio Zame and their nephew Bartolo, can be found on East Rock website.
