Wharram Pahi 26 Catamaran - $5000 (napa county)

Wharram Pahi 26 catamaran

This is a very interesting design as it is ocean capable, beachable, trailerable and only weighs 1550 pounds. It is considered a coastal trekking boat but people have sailed them long distances. Glenn Tieman did a 10 year circumnavigation in his:

http://www.latitude38.com/LectronicLat/2005/1005/Oct14/Oct14.html

It is 14'3" in beam and consists of two hulls that are assembled with crossbeams that are lashed in place. The hulls and crossbeams are well built and are constructed of epoxy over plywood. The varnished interior is dry and in good condition but the exterior is in need of paint and some minor hatch repair. It is currently in the water without antifouling paint so will need a good scrape when it next comes out of the water.

It was built in California and first registered in 2003. I was told that it was cruised for a while including a trip up the CA coast and through the CA delta rivers. It has now sat for a couple of years and will need some work to get back in sailing condition.

It was rigged with 4 or 5 sailboard sails that could be mounted at different points on the deck however, I only have one sailboard mast and sail with the boat. It also has two 14' unstayed masts that don't have sails. My plan was to rerig it with the wingsail rig that is used on the Wharram Tikis'. Plans are available through the Wharram website.

It has an adjustable motormount but no outboard and no trailer. I can help move it locally and could help set it up on a trailer if that was desired.

If you were thinking of building one of these, this would save a lot of time and money. I'm asking $5000.

Tiki 30 for Sale

Mahiya is exceptional, with lots of attention to detail and many unique ideas and features. She is a custom, professionally built boat (at a licensed yard in the Philippines). I personally supervised and took part in the build. For 2 years, 6 days each week I and a well-trained, highly skilled crew worked meticulously and methodically. Construction started in January 2007. She was completed and launched December 2008, 23 months later. Outfitting continued for several years. After sailing in the Philippines for a year she was shipped to Florida. She is USCG Documented, and has a Jones Act waiver which allows her to be used for charter work (she has a Coastwise Endorsement).

She is unique in many ways. No costs were spared on building her. She was the first Tiki 30 ever strip planked. The hulls are beautiful. We used strips of lauan (a Philippine hard wood) milled on site and perfectly molded to create nice lines and eliminate the “step” at the water line. The hulls were then glassed inside and out using West System Epoxy and cloth. There is a 316 stainless strip run down the entire length of the keel for protection while beaching her.

She is powered by a Yamaha 9.9

The mast is carbon fiber, as is the aft net tube and the bimini frame, all custom built for me in New Zealand.

All 6 nets were custom build in Saint Petersburg, FL.

The working sails were made by Hyde Sails. The jib is on a Pro Furl (roller furling system) and has a foam luff added for better shape while furled.

The main sail has three reef points.

There is also a screecher sail on a continuous loop furler. All sails are on 2:1 purchases for ease of raising and she is set up for single handed sailing with all lines led back to cockpit.

All cockpit cushions are cut from marine closed cell floatation boat foam. All material is Sunbrella (cushions, bimini, sail covers, hatch covers, etc). And the thread used was also sunbrella.

She is completely outfitted:

• Auto helm 2000 with Remote Control
• VHF, SSB, HAM
• SPOT Satellite transmitter
• GPS
• Barometer
• Wireless Instruments (Tack Tick)
• EPIRB
• Sea Anchor with dedicated harness and lines
• 3 Sets of Ground Tackle
• 6 Solar Panels
• Dorade Vents on main cabins
• 2 Solar vents on every cabin (intake and exhaust)
• Lightning system
• Surge protection
• Lewmar Atlantic Series Hatches and lights
• LED lighting through out
• Sony Marine sound system (speakers inside and out)
• Pressure shower on aft net
• 2 heads
• Deck tent
• Mosquito nets
• Lots of extra line (dock lines, sheets, etc.)
• Dock box
• Dock whips
• Fenders (including 2 large inflatables)
• 10 ft folding skiff with Yamaha 2 hp
• And much, much more!

She cost me roughly $150,000 to build and outfit.

Will sell for $85,000.

Tiki 38 For Sale in Langkawi

Lipa Lipa Wharram Tiki 38 is for sale

We are offering our beautiful Wharram Tiki 38, Lipa Lipa, for sale. She is currently lying in Langkawi Island, Malaysia. We began our dream of building her in the year 2000 Darwin, Australia, using the best quality materials available. She was launched in 2004 (photos of the launch may be seen under Tiki 38 on the Wharram designs website). She became a comfortable home for three years, and the first home, at the age of six hours, of our son Arun Lucky, which necessitated the addition of aluminium guard rails as he gradually became more mobile. In 2007 we took work in the seafaring island of Sulawesi, Indonesia, and sailed Lipa Lipa to our new home in 2008. She lay at mooring in the historic harbour of Makassar between 2008 and 2010, allowing us to explore the beautiful surrounding islands. In 2010, we undertook an extended voyage through Indonesia and Malaysia, arriving in Langkawi in early 2011. Lipa Lipa has proven a safe, sea-kindly vessel, looking after us through all manner of weather and sea conditions. She is a very comfortable home in tropical seas, with her large, shaded living area on deck.

We are reluctantly offering Lipa Lipa for sale, as we are now living on land and plan to down-size to a smaller boat. We hope she can take her new owners on further adventures.
