I've re-installed docker from docker.com and reboot the system several times. The problem does not go away
This is definitely caused by older versions of go running on osx.
For me I removed older versions of go I had installed via brew, you can see all go's on your system by doing
which -a go
make sure you only have one and it's a recent version.
Next you should reinstall the tool to make sure you have a version of it compiled on a recent version of go.
This would probably be docker CE for osx https://store.docker.com/editions/community/docker-ce-desktop-mac
My issue was with kubectl so I did gcloud components install kubectl instead.
