She's a fine looking boat.  What is the damage you need to repair?

Les coques ont été percées dans la partie arrière et l'eau traverse les cloisons jusqu'à l'avant.le pont sur la coque tribord a été arraché et les tissus de protection des quatre ponts ont été arrachés  si bien que le contreplaqué pourrit. Les poutres sont moins endommagées mais ont subi l'agression de lames (coupe-coupe) qui a enlevé le tissus de protection. Les cockpits sont cassés par pourriture du contreplaqué perforation par couteau ou lance. Le Pahi a séjourné sur le fleuve de la Tsiribihina (Madagascar) puis dans l'avant port de Morondava (eau de mer) , mais l'eau douce du fleuve et de la saison des pluies a amplifié les blessures.

Sorry to hear about this.  It sounds like you have a lot of work to do.  I hope it goes well for you!

When I first got mine the hulls were good but the beams were rotted and all hatches. When I made new beams I made them 3' longer so the beam on my boat is now 17' 6". I also replaced the cockpit and deck. Made the deck level with the beams. Took me a month and a half to make new beams. Used only clamps and glue to make the beams. I think I will make the hatches bigger on the single bunk and the utility room so I can get the inflatable and outboard in there.

I like your boat and mine too.
