The Iron Press March 2025

To My Valued Friends and Clients,

The newest kayak vessel astride my favorite piece of equipment our Goldhofer THP/SL in a 10 Line configuration. Able to transport immense loads easily with it's hydraulic deck and counter-steer system, it truly is a wonder to operate.

This month I've handed over the newsletter to Rob, our trusty Mechanic. Rob is approaching 15 years with MIW and he has a few stories about the happenings here. This month he has agreed to share one of those stories about the 1977 Oshkosh and his never ending struggle to keep it running.


A true story about Rob is that I fired him within the first 1/2 hour he worked here for being late. He was actually on time but in the wrong place, unbeknownst to both of us as no one had told him where to report. I will say he is persistent! He showed up the next day on time and in the right location so I hired him back. I don't regret that decision as he is an asset to the team and it's a story we still laugh about.


I hope you enjoy this month's newsletter.


Sincerely,


Tom Moran
