HI TIKI FANS,
Due to technical cliches, our new name is TIKI DAVID, we use to be CCF TIKI.

Answers to your previous questions,
The outrigger's name is "Surf Rider" it is
12 ft. long and carved out of a single log.
It has the orginial ropes on it that hung from the ceiling of the KonTiki in Cleveland.

We also have many hand carved panels with Tiki heads and symbols. Many beauties!
What a find!!!

Does anyone out there have photos from the KonTiki Cleveland? Inside and outside would be great! Would love to see how these panels were originaly used.

Have 2 panels dark wood 18" 7' with 3 tiki figures inlaid mother of pearl eyes with out reaching arms and circular forms inbetween
