Kim Holman knew what he was doing when he designed this boat.  She is modest below by today’s standards.  She is a fabulous looking boat and a pleasure to sail.  ‘Wahine’ has been carefully maintained over the years and in the brief time I owned her I have continued her conservation with the invaluable help of Larkman Ltd., Melton.  Two keel bolts were replaced in 2004.
