Can I build the Tiki 38 in strip plank?
James and Hanneke see no problem building the Tiki 38 in strip planking. Strip planking of appropriate thickness with sufficient fibreglass on the outside should be OK. You will need some stringers on the inside to fit floors, bunks and shelves on, so consider carefully how many of these you really need to remove – just the ones in open areas to get a clean look. Once you have the Plans you will get a better idea of what you can and can’t do, where the strengthening is in the hulls etc.
