Description
The ideal low budget self build ocean cruiser. With a sleeping capacity of 6 (two doubles in the hulls) and spacious level deck area, TIKI 30 makes an excellent low cost charter boat.
It is our largest self-build boat design that is capable of being towed behind a vehicle. This means keeping the build weight down, and simple but adequate accommodation. This is not a high cost, luxury boat, but an elegant, versatile, ‘double canoe’ sailing boat, providing basic comfort for ‘Living on the Sea’.
An optional deck pod with double berth and/or navigation station is included in these plans. This pod is an alternative to the standard open cockpit. This building decision comes down to personal preference.
