Descuidos De Paty Naviadad

Tiki A hero like mushrooms

SarĂ  che prima non avevo l'occhio allenato a certe sagome, ma durante l'ultima scorrazzata ellenica ho fatto la conoscenza di ben 3 catamarani di wharram placidamente ancorati al riparo nelle baie cicladiche.

Appena arrived in Paros two trees at a certain angle (!!!) are distinguished from all other alberame anchor.


It 's a Pahi 42 feet, is called Hecate. Actually I already knew him, pinched on youtube for videos on Wharram: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgCwq4QNHYo
The boat was built in Phuket, Thailand, and there conducted in Greece to make charter through the Red Sea.


has now changed hands, a English, who decided to take her to England and use it as his personal boat. What we will do with Pahi 42 in the middle of the Solent only he knows ... At this very time of writing you would find in any port in Sicily. Enjoy your trip!
I have also offered to accompany them on board to help out on their journey to England, but honestly even if I had plenty of time available I do not know if I would accept, not gives me great confidence about their ability to marinate, well-to-skin ... I do not know what we would have fun in the Bay of Biscay early autumn! maybe I would have accompanied only to Gibraltar =)

The second boat was ... Hecate's twin! But this is still dedicated to its charter and skipper Eric, Marseilles, made me do a ride on board, but mostly I found that while at first he did not think much to the seaworthiness of the catamarans over monohulls in Cycladic area, the more reason with inquiries concerning a Wharram, after two years of charter Pahi had to change his mind on coming to consider it a great boat, quite capable of withstanding the Aegean Sea in all its conditions (hence my Tiki will be! small, of course ...).

The third was a real Tiki, a 38-foot anchor in the island of Milos Kraut! Unfortunately the crew was not exactly the greatest sympathy and although he's kicking around for about ten minutes I have offered to come aboard and we exchanged a couple of words.

Written by Alex
How many of you may have guessed, the post title does not refer to a monkey out of the hands a little too long co-star film of the same name, but to the "volcano" (call it that) of the Palermo football chairman, Maurizio Zamparini.
This gentleman, whose main hobby is to "devour" a coach after another, after his first defeat at home to Palermo to Inter has found no better than to declare that his team were denied four kicks penalty area, went to the dose and then says the whole is more and more like Juventus Calciopoli.

Apple Juieinfant Reflux?

Ithaca

The Tiki will be called Ithaca.

No names of gods of Polynesian or bright stars, no Corto Maltese or distant and mysterious places, not the Pearl of Labuan, no strange beasts mythological or tropical bird.

Ithaca, because the construction of a boat is a place where you will arrive after traveling a long time, especially inside themselves, and once gives way to leave.

I found my personal definition of Ithaca.

If we want to add that we are made mostly of water and it is therefore possible (and necessary) and navigate within them in those around us, then the boat becomes something more than just a means to cross a stretch of sea and Ithaca is not just a goal.



definitely need to paint on a nice pair of eyes bows to ward off unwelcome presences ...


Talking about more serious things, continues the installation of the deck, the bow is already in place and the stern will be available soon. The sides for the support of the deck house are cut and resins, including holes in the door.



Blankets bow and stern are "resting" on the sides of the hull, following the transverse curvature (to avoid water to stop and to provide greater resistance due to the effect arc). Are reinforced with three strips on the inside and one on the outside. The bonding is performed with creases along the outer perimeter and inner sides (the ones available!).



The deck follows the same principle as the bow and stern, with two increases, however, leaning on the side of the hull and always reinforced with three strips on the inside.


Now that I see it mounted I can think of square so that the deck is a bit 'too militaristic, looks like a tank! A minimum of curvature to the deck in the transverse and longitudinal would give the whole a more pleasant; but would require a lot 'of changes to the project ... to keep in mind for the next boat =)

Dora The Explorer Waffle Iron

Color! As essential

No video or photos in those days. It seems that the forces have completely abandoned the glorious instrument of recovery, which, alas, is in the process of (dubious) repair.

But the song goes on, at least from a conceptual point of view!

Although still early to devote himself to paint, I'm starting to think about how you should see the Tiki in its final shape.

I threw down a couple combinations of colors, so, just to see the effect they did. (Nice Tamarra the background picture eh? There are only palm trees!)

not see the splash pool, but that will surely be white, I have no doubt about this.

For the sails do not know ... The set amaranth attracts me a lot, but also the white sails with the line colors do not look bad at all.

The hull will think blue, the red are still in doubt, but surely I will not yellow!

(green? No bad luck ...) Suggestions??
