| Kahuna is a good choice for extended offshore
sailing. Hull volume and carrying capacity are both
much greater than with Wynfall or Austral, and her
larger size allows for features such as built-in
water tanks (with a capacity of 100 gallons). She
retains the buoyant hull shape, fine entry and clean
run that make her smaller sisters a joy to sail. |

| Kahuna is stiff,
weatherly and fast (more
details
available
on my blog), and will be a comfortable home
on the water as well. Her plans are drawn for wood
and epoxy construction, and include specifications
for both strip and cold-molded planking. Plans
include drawings for gaff and bermudan rigs, and
for several layouts. |
