Hello everyone,

Well, it is now 2023 and my son and I's  Tiki 21 project is back on.

This time we would like to know if Birch plywood would be right for this project. We may have a good deal on enough of it to build the entire boat.

I am attaching a screen capture that describe the main qualities of this material.

It seems right to us but, being first time builders, we would appreciate the opinions of more…

I’m 2 years in averaging around 20 hours per month.  Yes, very part time but still enjoying it.  The beams, tillers, hatchs, mast and other small parts are complete.   I’m just now fitting the upper panels to the first hull.   Building one hull at a time due to space limitations.  The upper panels have been the most intimidating so far.   Any advice from the Cretan’s out there???

I might sell my tiki 38.
Just been painted.
Deck etc needs re installing.
Built extremely well.
Would any one be interested.
Full rigging etc
