“San Diego”
A sudden rush of the blood to the brain, resulted in the sale of our house in lovely Pinehaven, New Zealand - this enabled a couple of things to happen:
1) My partner could at last start her own firm www.vaultconsulting.co.nz without fear of ‘the mortgage’
2) I could have another project. A BIG project.
I tell a lie here for a good story, it was very well calculated and the purchase of the boat was about 9 months prior to actual sale of the house….we had scoured NZ for a suitable gin palace. Unfortunately our house was modest and we had budget for either a small but well appointed boat - or yes - you guessed it, a BIG PROJECT! Not all my choice…all those shoes needed a big hull! 
Had to be done…
