Hi David & Mary, hope you’re in the best of health when you receive this letter. I saw that you received a comment from my younger brother mario,nevertheless my concern was on how are you enjoying the performance of your new rudder?i hope you’re satisfied. David i want tou to know that i received a call some time ago from someone that you recommended me to but i never did that job,seem like the guys in the shelter bay convinced the client and they did it. I’m not the only one who can but having you know this would clear me if it should fail. thank again and be good.

I was moved to know that you had some professional/precision work done in my home Panama by Mr.Ernesto Ryce.His work and craftsmanship speaks for itself. I am pretty sure you will not have a reoccurrence of what you had in Shelter bay.This mans dedicated years of his apprenticeship on welding and metallurgy has put him where he stands today.Proudly speaking for my brother.Ship ahoy.

Dear David and Mary,
WE have read all your web pages and are interested in your adventure. Before you leave NZ we would love to meet you, either in Nelson or on the Kapiti Coast where we live. If you are traveling North by road do call in and stay if you wish. Plenty of room here. Regards

Peter & Linda Gibson

We just passed on an aluminum Samoa 47 and are looking for something a little smaller. Would you recommend we look at the Madeira? What is the bridge clearance- it does not show on the stadt web site. Where was Giselle built? Contact me on email. Would love to chat.
Brad

David, I heard a rumour you might be back in Scotland. Hardslog is in Ferry Marine getting a bit of facial work done after a Port Edgar hurricane but you know you are welcome to come out on her anytime you are home until you have a boat back here. just say the word. Regards to you both and really sorry to hear about the house. Ian

Honest we did discuss preparing them but they were small and they are quite fiddly to prepare on a rolling boat. Plus we would have had to hand over more goodies to Quarantine in NZ!

You get good squid in the market in Whangarei which we have enjoyed several times.
