damm...what a beauty...

She's gorgeous... inspired by (or blatantly copied from) L.F.
Herreshoff, no doubt the original owner had very good taste but wanted
something BIGGER!

...."cold moulded wood" what the
%$#@ is that?......


It's plywood, laminated in place over a mold so that it's literally made
in the shape of the hull & deck. Very strong stuff, it's claimed by
those familiar with it to be the longest lived & least problematic
boatbuilding material.

that is quite a boat/ship....not exactally what you might find on
ebay....


Oh you never know. I couldn't afford to keep a boat like that even if
offered it for free, in perfect condition. Well, I could afford it for a
little while, but my family might not like the result

BTW Bruce King also designed a classic work-boat style express cruiser
for Billy Joel a while back, this boat (IIRC it was 36') was fabulously
expensive of course but so widely admired that several other designers &
builders started copying her... most notably Hinckly, who has now
patented the name 'picnic yacht' to try & hog the market for their copies!
