Wharram Tiki 21 "Little Cat": Hatches
http://tiki21littlecat.blogspot.com/2015/07/hatches.html
Wharram Tiki 21 "Little Cat". Sail Log: 3844 Nautical Miles. Saturday, July 18, 2015. Are a PITA. Why is this so? Because they are the most used bits on the boat and get battered about. And, because they have so many surfaces to build/repair/paint. Think about it - maintaining a piece of deck involves a single. Surface. If we count every facet of a simple square hatch, including edges and each side of the combings, we have fourteen. Individual surfaces to deal with! The West Manual, says that when checks...

Wharram Tiki 21 "Little Cat": Half Moon Bay
http://tiki21littlecat.blogspot.com/2015/07/half-moon-bay.html
Wharram Tiki 21 "Little Cat". Sail Log: 3844 Nautical Miles. Friday, July 31, 2015. Back in January I had a quick weekend overnighter down to Half Moon Bay. It was a bit rushed because I had kid-related activities on Saturday morning, and had to be back by Sunday afternoon for more kid-related activities. Genoa set flying to make the most of the very light wind. Channel Buoy with Pt San Pablo behind. We arrived in Pillar Point Harbor after dark. What a great overnight spot! July 31, 2015 at 12:34 PM.

From paper to water. With two pairs of helping hands it was rather pleasing act to glue on the forward deck. Thanks a lot, mates! Those freshly glued front deck stringers got nice and cozy overnight stay under this i-love-to-hassle-with-masking-tape tent. Bunks are ready for port hull. Now there will be some paint job (Tikkurila Temacoat RM40) and stringer job before gluing the decks on. Looking good, hopefully I could keep up the pace…. Epoxy cooking in winter conditions… coating bunk undersides. 8211; ...

From paper to water. So… second hull got stitched up and yesterday I made some nice fillets for keel and bulkheads for 2 sections… I think its time to talk about little variations and changes I have made and plan to make into workflow, just to make whole process a little bit smoother and less time consuming. 8211; I didn’t saw much point for lofting a curved line for bunks, as the camber for the bunk edges is only a few mm for those couple dozens of cm. For bunk in companionway section – Wharram pl...

Wharram Tiki 21 "Little Cat": Point Diablo Cove
http://tiki21littlecat.blogspot.com/2015/01/pt-bonita-cove.html
Wharram Tiki 21 "Little Cat". Sail Log: 3844 Nautical Miles. Tuesday, January 6, 2015. Is a great spot to stop for lunch or to shelter from the prevailing NW winds. I don't seem to ever see boats in Pt Diablo cove (just to the east of Point Diablo), perhaps because of the strong currents and rocky bottom, which are not the best for anchor holding. Pt Diablo and Light. Looking NE towards the Bay. So, if you are looking for some seclusion and quality seal time - give Diablo Cove a visit.

Wharram Tiki 21 "Little Cat": Other Boats In My Life
http://tiki21littlecat.blogspot.com/p/other-boats.html
Wharram Tiki 21 "Little Cat". Sail Log: 3844 Nautical Miles. Other Boats In My Life. In reverse chronological order. Over-canvassed and a real handful in a blow. 218 sq ft of sail on a 16' boat weighing 320 lbs - that is more sail area than the Tiki 21 even though it is 1/3 of the weight. On a reach it is as fast as most new boats and can be seen out in winds that have other racing boats on the beach (maybe because of the V-hulls and rocker? I had this beauty for just one summer before getting the Wharram.
