<p> Thanks for the video and image links! Best video of the mkIV I have seen!</p>
<p>Matt,</p>

<p>All the "family" wants is to live and sail on the water as soon as we possibly can:) For me, whether our boat is a Narai mrk II or IV or a tiki 38 doesn't matter. Whether we build or buy also doesn't matter except that I hope it won't take us more than three years....i like the comment on good crew being more important than the "perfect" boat.

Any boat we choose can be destroyed by some kind of natural disaster, and sailing is always going to be risky, much like falling in love. You just can't plan or be prepared for every single challenge you might encounter. But the risks we take to fall asleep to the sound of waves lapping against our hulls are worth it.

<p>There are many valid reasons to choose the Mk1V. Apart from the width etc. the underwater lines are different to give a better run aft for less drag.</p>
<p>I have seen Kristen's post and am delighted to hear you have sailing plans.</p>
