Chris,
I'm factoring in the fact that I'll have to pay gst and import duty when I get her back to Oz. It's a fact of life, an infortunate fact of life but one nonetheless. It will be a fair whack as the boat in question won't leave me much change out of NZ$200,000 by the time we're done with the importing. We are just at the beginning of the buying process and it's possible that one of these things will pop up in Oz before the deal is done but that is "wait and see". Again I thank you for your input. Major problem is that the design really fits what I want in our next boat and there were only about fifty of them built worldwide. Half of these had the type B interior which is unsuitable for my needs so I need to cast my net pretty widely to get what I want. A worldwide search has only incovered three boats for sale and two of those are either in Canada or the UK. NZ is looking better all the time, Tasman Sea or no Tasman Sea.
Regards
TD
