Default Summer Pictures

We just returned from our Vineyard cruise. Here's a few pics pulled
from the summer's pile o' pixels. There are two mystery boats for the
experts to identify. I know the answer to the first (as should many
readers) but I'm not sure about the the second.

It's very credible the first is Seraffyn... the outboard,
the pole bowsprit, the wide spread lowers... it's not a
production model Bristol Channel Cutter, at any rate.

The second is (I think) one of the Herreshoff knockabouts,
perhaps a Buzzard's Bay 15? The reverse curve under the bow
overhang is distinctive, you see it on the NY 40s and some
of the early meter boats too. I think I know where to look
it up.

Beautiful pics, Jeff, thanks!
