<p>David - If I can use first names ? this attach. will not open for me ? Perhaps it matters little from the Info. given I think I can see the picture.</p>
<p>I am a little surprised at a board on this boat. Not on Wharrams in general. My own limited experience is that I need one on my Pahi but other small Tikis seem fine without.</p>
<p>Tiki has a deeper "V" and more rocker than Pahi [more draught] which is probably why. Price paid is less space inside ?</p>

<p>Tiki has a deeper "V" and more rocker than Pahi [more draught] which is probably why. Price paid is less space inside ?</p>
<p>However James launched this boat as suitable for Round-Britain and Trans-Atlantic racing. Specifically for the OSTAR which is 2000 miles of windward work / racing. It already seems to be among the narrower hulled deeper "V 'ed "boats. Hence my curiosity. Why would such a boat need a board added ?</p>
<p>James did in fact try very hard for racing success. The Pahi designs are derived from an attempt to design a 35 ft boat to win the Round Britain. James himself served on the committee of MOCRA.</p>
<p>Laurence - thanks for photo. Can you find out more ? From the photo it looks like the board does not protrude at all below the existing keel line so I suspect it may not be of great value however experience trumps over theory every time....can you report more ?</p>

<p>Here is the profile of our Ariki with the board. The sail rig is close but has more roach and 6 battens. We are having the sails made by Dave Calvert/Doyle.…</p>
