<p>Wow, the picture really does portray how small the 21 really is. Circumnavigation anyone?</p>
<p>Seriously though, I think the slightly scaled up boat would be great. I think, 1AND 1/8 is what looked like would use all of 3 8' sheets buttjointed. Whatever is easy math wise. 10% easier in metric. Plans seem to be in metric and imperial. Let us know how you make out. Won't be doing a small Tiki for many years, but you never know!</p>
<p>Cheers,<br/> Jeff</p>

<p>Thanks for the picture.</p>
<p>In line of what LastParadise wrote, I really like the one sheet high sidepanels.</p>
<p>I thought about scaling up an 10% from the original T21 dimensions, would be very easy to do, and then adding a little height in the cabin tops. That could give me 90 cm and not look too odd. Wonder if it would be too much trouble.</p>
<p>One thing I´d like to keep is the original mast height, that can be done with just one alu tube, without welding.</p>

<p>What is the smallest I can sit up in is a very good design question. I sometimes ask what is the smallest I can stand up in. Unfortunately both questions show up a design limitation in deep "vee"design. My pahi31 is approx.1800 [5ft 10in]high but 400 [16in] of this is "lost"under the floorboards - so only 1350 [4ft6in] headroom. The smaller the boat the less you can afford this loss - in a large boat it may make very little difference. You can increase headroom by higher cabins etc. but less…</p>
<p>What is the smallest I can sit up in is a very good design question. I sometimes ask what is the smallest I can stand up in. Unfortunately both questions show up a design limitation in deep "vee"design. My pahi31 is approx.1800 [5ft 10in]high but 400 [16in] of this is "lost"under the floorboards - so only 1350 [4ft6in] headroom. The smaller the boat the less you can afford this loss - in a large boat it may make very little difference. You can increase headroom by higher cabins etc. but less obviously perhaps by using a hull which is wider. Shallow "vee" [hard chine] or a dory will allow you to lower the floor thus getting the extra room you need. A dory [flat bottom panel ] of 20cm [8"] will add 20cm to headroom. Of course you are now well on the way to designing or buying plans for a different boat.</p>
<p>Please do not hear this as a blanket criticism of deep "vee" boats whether designed by JWD or not. Tiki 21 is an award-winning boat and deservedly so. Ther are many reasons for our choice of design and "I just want a Wharram" is as valid as any. However "the smallest I can stand up in " and "the smallest I can sit up in" are probably not deep "vee"hulls.</p> I had been considering a larg…tag:wharrambuilders.ning.com,2012-05-01:2195841:Comment:719482012-05-01T00:02:47.598ZLastParadisehttp://wharrambuilders.ning.com/profile/LastParadise
I had been considering a larger 21 at 23,5'. Same one sheet high sides but using more of sheet and same number of butt joint. could certainly get the 90cm. Would imagine like the Tiki 24 that never happened. ended up going with something altogether bigger, but may do it someday. let me know how you're turns out.<br />
Cheers,<br />

<p>I like <a href="http://www.sailblogs.com/member/nycteris/" target="_blank">this</a> idea removable hard cabin toppers... maybe even ones that can come apart and be stored on board... I've been thinking of something like this for my T21... definitely cheaper and faster than building a T26... However I would still rather a T26... More room and more storage = more comfort and longer trips</p>
