Ariki 48 Sailing Catamaran Build Update | 5 February 2014

Progress on the Ariki build: forward beam with seagull striker, anchor locker and windlass, deck hardware reinforcements, galley fridge and freezer unit, fuel tanks, and rudders. Next step: taking apart the boat for final paint prior to reassembly at the Crackerboy Boatworks yard in West Palm Beach, Florida just down the street.
