We went and met Graham and Josephine for a chat and had a look over Dream Time, not to
buy since I already own a Tanenui but I am interested in other people's
Wharrams and their experiences. I was most impressed. Dream Time is
elegant! She looks wonderful sailing, she is finished with real care and
has a number of lovely touches for practical sailing, single handing and
cruising. Graham and Josephine are still enthusiastic about her after five years of
owning and sailing her, they are only selling because they have a not to be missed chance
to buy a friend's year old Tiki 30.
Is your beautiful Tanenui still on sale?
Please let me know asap.
I am interested in buying her if still possible.
Regards
Arthur
Hi Arthur
Yes the boat is still available. Southern hemisphere summer is approaching and I have had a bit more interest but nothing totally settled as yet. So please let me know as soon as you can if you want to proceed further.
Out of curiosity - What would your plans be ? - Are you coming to NZ for a sailing holiday (a really good idea) or would you ship her back home to SA ?
Best regards
Graham Marsden

As I posted above December 2014, I had sold DreamTime to a young guy here in NZ
He has since listed the boat on TradeMe her in NZ a couple of times.
DreamTime is still very close to where I live and I am not sure what is happening with her.
Let me know if you want to be in contact with the owner, I can arrange it.
