My name is Carl, I live in Auckland New Zealand.
I saw an add for a tear and started doing a little surfing. My wife agreed she would like to give a tear a go for camping instead of the tent and the rest is history

There is at least one local manufacturer but they don't seem to have a web address. A bigger tear with wheels under the trailer called the Pipi.
I have started building a modified 8x4 (you might end up with some metric from me as well ) Benroy and I am mighty impressed with the efforts of the group doing the plans etc

My album shows the progress to date, and the trailer is being fabricated for me (no Harbour Freight in NZ)
I think I got my wifes approval as it stops me building more cedar strip kayaks for a while

Thanks and Kind Regards Carl
