Palma, Mallorca networking event


The first post pandemic IIMS event in Palma took place in the city on Friday 10 June.


It was the initiative of IIMS member, John Walker, and the networking gathering drew an audience of 7 people.


Those who attended gave the meeting the thumbs up! In attendance were John Walker, Paul Madely, Timothy Bell, Felix Bussmann, Graham Ferreija, Esperança Ruiz and Juan Roig.


Newer IIMS HQ staff out on survey


IIMS has had a policy in place of taking new members of staff out on a dummy survey for some years. The pandemic has made this far trickier in recent times, but some of the team finally managed to join Paul Homer (Chairman of Standards) last month at a Fairline brokerage on the River Hamble near Southampton. The morning was spent tapping the hull of the Fairline Squadron named Kathryn, playing with moisture meters and thickness gauges, and crawling around in the engine room to understand the importance of the work carried out by marine surveyors.

Despite the boat being relatively new, the team managed to discover a few minor issues which would certainly need to be highlighted in a subsequent report. Those in attendance - Vicki


Loizides, Rosie Webb, Rachel Moores and Camella Robertson - were appreciative of Paul’s knowledge and now have a far greater understanding of the importance of the surveyor’s vital role.


IIMS exhibits at Seawork


The IIMS head office team took it in turns to man the stand at the three- day Seawork show from 21 to 23 June at Southampton. It is great to see the event back after the pandemic and the organisers should be applauded for their efforts to get the show back up and running again. Sadly, the event did not attract the level of pre pandemic visitors this time around.


A series of disruptive one day strikes by rail workers did little to help matters either. Despite this, the team met some members and non- members, as well as networking with industry contacts.
