Re: Tour of the Boat



Hi Chris and all,

Good to get some background on all you guys. I've been an observer mostly .

At present I own and live (for 7 years) on  a steel 60ft yacht and am in the
process of finishing her and trying to sell her. I'm 41, live in Auckland
New Zealand and am a supervisor/engineering installation and yacht
construction worker. Today I went and saw the America's Cup challengers come
in from racing, those Italians are looking tough.

My main interest is to build an autonomous sub but may end up building
something smaller. The waters are reasonably clear here  in NZ but to get to
good dive sites requires some surface travel first sometimes.

Regards, Karl.
