After the event, starting at 17.00, IIMS plans to hold an informal garden party with food prepared in the garden available from 17.30. It is understood that most will not be able to join, but if you are local to our office in Portchester and would like to pop by (partners welcome) and do some networking whilst enjoying some food and drink (at our expense) we would love to see you. All we ask is to please let us know if you plan to attend in advance by completing a very simple online form at https://bit.ly/3CEkeqW. This same form can also be used to pre-register your online place at the AGM.


In a first for the Institute, Mike Schwarz has been in conversation with outgoing President, Geoff Waddington and new President, Peter Broad and two audio podcasts have been made. You can listen to both men, explaining how IIMS has survived the pandemic against all odds, strengthening our position in the process, and the relevance of the Institute to today’s marine surveyor.


Listen to Geoff’s podcast (run time 12 minutes) at https://bit.ly/38flqX8.


Listen to Peter’s podcast (run time 31 minutes) at https://bit.ly/39H1o8d.


And finally - the IIMS President is presented with his medal


At the AGM held in 2020, Zarir Irani handed an imitation paper medal to the incoming President, Geoff Waddington, via a Zoom screen – all rather unsatisfactory, but all that could be done at that time. This was due to Covid preventing the official handing over in person from the outgoing President to the incoming one. Finally, we got Paul Homer (Chairman of Standards) to meet Geoff at the IIMS office in Portchester so that he could be formally presented with the President’s medal.
