@apologistfrank@OrientalBayNZ They are within the 5 knot buoys, so have to go slow. This is a place where people regularly swim so is incredibly dangerous.
Today we launch the first of a series of articles that focus on retrofitting existing buildings. We will do this using one of our current projects, the deep retrofit of a 1940s ex-state house.
