Raise the masts of the Tiki 38

This is Giovani from Tiki 38 Amelia, currently living aboard in Paraty- RJ, Brazil, a region of light winds.I am studying the possibility of increasing the masts to 12m, changing the service sails, installing a bowsprit and installing a screecher and a gennaker sail.Any suggestions?The idea would be to increase the masts in the TOP region, increasing them with an aluminum tube, leaving approximately 1m inside the wooden mast and 2m above.See More

"Hi Dave, I live in my Tiki 38 Amelia in Paraty- RJ, amazing place but with little winds. What was the size of the  flat cut tri-radial cruising chute with snuffe did you order? Are you happy with?"

"Seems like an old post that did not get any replies. I am new on the forum here and was wondering the same thing, especially about the SSB antenna, given that there isn't any steel standing rigging on Wharrams as far as I know?"

"Giovani, that's a useful list. But why no recommended outboards for the Raka design? (Also for the Tama Moana, Child of the Sea, which is almost identical in hull dimensions, sail area, and weights as Raka.)"

"You have not provided enough information for anyone to be of help. However, if they are the same make and model number, chances are the propellers will spin the same direction."

Ian R replied to Giovani Frisene's discussion Engines and Propellers
"Interesting question, since some twin -screw  set- ups have counter -rotating props. Are there any engineers on here to comment? Rare breed now chez nous in UK, possibly to get rarer in poor old Boris-laughing stock -Britain."
