I have a Tanenui 28, for sale. She is on a mooring in St.Aubins harbour in Jersey, Channel Islands UK.   She needs new bulwarks but is in otherwise good condition.   She is the subject of the book "Attempted Escape From Western Civilization by homebuilt wooden catamaran"  (available on Amazon or Lulu).  Would accept £3500, or sell a share to a UK based owner.  Cheers Tim.

Hi Tim

Sorry for the long silence -sidetracked by work. Is she still available? What happened to the bulwarks? If you would rather pm me, please do.

Best wishes

John
Hi John, the bulwarks are in need of replacing, they were the only bit not made of quality marine ply. She is still available. Cheers Tim.
Hi Tim

I will pm you, if you don't mind.

Cheers

John
Hi Tim,
Just wanted to say that I thought 'Attempted Escape From Western Civ...." was riotous. I loved the part about taking over your friend's parents garden to build her. The flying stereo speaker made me howl....not to mention the neighbor girl that nearly passed out applying bilge paint. Good luck! Bob

Hi Bob, glad you liked the book! Spread the word. Cheers Tim.
Hi Tim

The site message says I cannot pm you unless you say so. Would you mind?

Re Bob's message. I ordered the book from Lulu a couple of days ago - looking forward to it.

John
Oh, I have no problem spreading the word. I would venture that many on this site have read it. I love "The Voyage of the Kaimiloa" and "Two Girls, Two Catamarans" but "Attempted Escape from Western Civ.." has that Marx Bros zaniness while still capturing the romance of these boats. Hope to meet you over a pint one day...
