Modified Mk4 Tangaroa

You perhaps saw "Siramami" on the SBM brokerage pages. The hulls were Tangaroa Mk4 to plans, sold and turned into a great "refashioned" fixed beamed yacht by Richard McKilroy and now being completed by new owners. Instead of the open deck slatting Richard was doing, Tim & Jules are having a "bridgedeck" which becomes part of the structure, providing sitting headroom, large double bunk etc etc. A couple of guys are doing the work for them (they also worked on the "BigCat" project) and I popped in to take a couple of shots of the "pod" coming together... SB.

The hardwood slatting was removed & a ply/foam/ply cockpit/lowered floor went in in its place. The "shed", constructed of "Stirlingboard" a waterproof particle board, is built onto the outsides of the hulls giving a dry environment for the epoxy work to continue during the autumn & winter.
