Do you think it could go up-wind?

Nice looking rig, but the square chined hull make it kinda ugly.

I like Bruces boats. And I hear good things about they spray model.

Paint it up like a pirate ship and it would make a nice tourist boat
for a summer bay sails. We have one here called the Jolly Roger but
it not Square rigged. I like to take RedCloud broadside to her in the
bay, just wish we had cannons.

What sort of a Texan redneck are you? No cannons??? Hell, I have 5
muzzle loaders crated up for transport at the moment, courtesy of a
friend who owned an iron foundry.
