Throughout Mon Tiki’s construction and this first season of operation OG commenter James B. Franks has consistently expressed thoughtful and enthusiastic interest in the endeavor. The above is in reply to his question about how Mon Tiki looks with her full working sailplan, and how she’s holding up.
She’s holding up fine, James, and thanks for asking! 🙂

1. Ex-Navy
2. Engineer
