Looking for small Wharram in the UK

Hi All,

As per the title, looking for a ≤26ft boat in the UK. Myself and my father have been looking at building a Mana 24, but are open to the idea of buying either a Tiki, Mana or Pahi. Could maybe even go for a Hitia 17!

Not in a rush, as currently travelling overseas, but would be keen to move on the right boat this year if it came up. Otherwise we'd go ahead with the Mana and enjoy the build experience together.

Kind Regards,

Josh

Josh,

My Tiki 26 will be going up for sale very shortly. I built Lookfar in 2002 and have maintained her to a very high standard throughout. She has been out of the water for a total of 8 years of which 5 have been under cover. All exterier surfaces are coated with two pack expoxy paint and Coppercoat antifouling below the water line plus sereval refits and one repaint. The 5HP Mariner longshaft sailmate outboard is one year old. Take a look at my page on the forum for some photos etc. I can send sailing videos by email but can't work out how to put them on the forum. This will be a very reluctant sale as Lookfar has been a major part of my life but I now need a boat that I can stand up in. Without getting too poetic she has some of my soul embedded in her. If I believe a future owner can maintain her to a continued high standard I will be generous with the deal. If you are interested please respond fairly quickly as I am just about to put her in the hands of a broker. Lookfar is lying at Conwy Marina, North Wales.
