Pahi 31
Designed by James Wharram
The Pahi 31 was the first of the Pahis, designed in 1979 after a 35 ft prototype had sailed the 1978 Round Britain Race. She is 9.45 m long with a 4.95 m beam.
The designers say the Pahi hull shape has proven itself in rough weather, in speed and in ease of motion, and that at 31 ft she is still capable of ocean voyages. Standing headroom is under a large raised hatch. The original rig is a Bermudan cutter, and she is now also available with the Wharram Wingsail Rig, which puts the mast further forward and clears the center deck.
What building a Pahi 31 actually takes
Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
