Can I fit in Able Tasman?

Looking for advice on my 15 day June road trip!

I'm wondering if I've been too conservative and if I could fit in a detour through hammer springs up too Able Tasman.

I've been to Queenstown/wanaka and kaikoura so I'm spending minimal time there. Do you think I could add in the detour with out having to drive all day and feeling rushed ?

This is my original plan with 2 free days I move around if need be
