please: any advice on this yacht?

This post is a bit late. But, it might be a good FYI. Kiri wood is practically impossible to get right now. The NZers have built a lot of boats from this stuff and now the boats are selling off cheap. I have a friend here in the Puget Sound, with a custom 43, that put in deck ports and had to cut up his solon table for the trim. It is a beautiful boat and fast but in bristol condition.There are plantations of the tree starting up in several places but will not be read to for quite awhile. Just my $.02.
