I bought Malika as a Hull and superstructure, with the proceeds from the sale of Sarka.

She was in the front garden of a chap in Reading, so I built a 3 ton trailer and had the boat craned out and onto it. This was the 1st of many moves, and although I had originally intended to have her built in 12months the eventual build time was nearer 10 years!!

Its was about this time that we also started building a family and the arrival of 4 kids put severe pressure on the resources department.

Thge building and launching of Malika is a long story and included such items as casting her lead keel and other adventures....To be continued
