There we go…I am BEGINNING to look for an used IOM…NO HURRY…as for now just gathering infos!

A few questions?

  1. where to look for?
  2. what kind of IOM could suit me?
  3. price range?

My wind conditions are light to medium…though in June it blows hard…

Thanks

Here you go Wis. A Fog hull is available in NZ. This is a competitive IOM design.

Let me know if you want me to check freight costs from NZ to Japan. I’ll be in the States next month if it’s cheaper to ship it from there.
