Very nice craft - I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Suggest you resist any temptation to add an upper station. The added complexity of engine controls, engine instrumentation, steering, and nav instruments are unreal. This is based on my experience owning a 38' Bristol trawler with an upper station. First problem is usually a bubble working it's way into the upper helm - suddenly no steering. Second is not being able to throttle down to idle from the upper station, because the lower station wasn't left at idle. The list goes on.... I sold the boat before I tossed the upper station. |

I like the Blue boat and can't stand the White boat....look at that monstrosity (white thing)...where does anyone thing they are going in that....way too much expense just to keep it stable and it still wouldn't be worth a fiddlers in a rolling sea....but that's just me.

Tell me about the wind vent
Never saw one on a boat. Are you happy with it?

I like it - it draws air out of the cabin - seems to do a good job at taking stale/hot air out of the galley.

Strikingly beautiful craft. Nice choice on the white trimmed windscreen. Always liked that look.

I'd dearly love to cruise that lady into a waterside crabhouse dock on the Chesapeake and watch the heads turn.

Big storm is coming!
Thanks Mo - been busy working on this vessel since haul out last season...there is one heck of a lot of work to be done on a boat made of wood this size!

Date, when?
I think we just found our annual meeting committee boat.
Damn, that's still pretty. You must have been over the moon!
