Dear Tarcisio, We are John and Kat from Australia, members of the PCA and we are building a 42' Pahi due to launch in about a year. We will be in Salvador on 23rd January and Rio on 25th January - each just for the day. If you are going to be in the area and would be happy to meet with us to discuss Wharram building and owning, we would enjoy it very much. Please let us know as soon as possible.
Regards
John and Kat

Dear Tarcisio, because of our short time in Rio, we will not be able to get to see you unfortunately - it is too far to drive there & back in 12 hrs.

All the best to you & your family, and thank you for your kind invitation. We hope the devastation Brazil has not touched you and your family. We pray you all stay safe.
