7th May to 19th July 2023 

I was released to race in the Tauranga IOM Nationals happening this October here in Tauranga.  

I need a faster IOM to replace my favorite stolen one?

 Ken you keen to build me a new one.  "Yer, Sure am" 

I am not sure how many boats Ken has built for me now, each one has been faster than the last..   thanks again Ken

So home after sailing on the 7th May to draw up Frank IV and hit print on the 3d printer.

You can see our 3d printer mould making posts along the way over the last 10 weeks.  Alot of overnighters by both Ken and Me.

So now both Frank's need to be finished by tonight, Tuesday, and I will get rush them to North Shore tomorrow. 

8.30am thanks to Bob who will measure both IOM's in their NS container.  (and maybe a couple of local IOM races while there?)

Hopefully they will pass measuring?  (will thank Bob if they do?  ;)

We have Chris on standby to receive our forms, and sent us some certs by Friday Night (thanks Chris)

and then hopefully Ken and I are off to the Auckland Champs Saturday morning if everything above goes well (11 weeks from concept to race day :)

Thank you soo much Ken and everyone in the team for helping us get to this point...
