I'll be in the Hamilton area, Raglan to be exact. I'm guessing I wouldn't be able to find it anywhere but in Auckland though.....

if you don't have any luck give me a yell....I'm sure I can loan you a couple of Bowens or Lumedynes!

Raglan is great for surf....but not a great time of year for weather!!
