We have hauled our Tiki 30 out for fresh bottom paint. We are in Cracker Boy Boatworks in Riviera Beach FL. The "Crack" has the deepest water of any boatyard in South FL and so we get to see lots of way cool race boats, particularly in the winter.This boat was shown here several months ago after Branson's failed Transat record attempt. Apparently the boats owner has had a change in his financial condition and now needs to sell the boat. I was told they have $35 million into the boat and are unable to attract buyers at substantially less. So the boat has been separated from her keel and is being strapped down to the ground in preparation for the hurricane season.
Above she looks like the biggest racing dinghy you ever saw,which is pretty much just what she is. Below is her keel still upright in the cradle. 18' of canting keel. WOW
She comes with her own workshop container as well. That's the boom wrapped up on top of the container. Should someone be interested in this boat I can hook you up with contacts. But I want a ride. David
