The Dutch have a long tradition of building sweet curves into steel
hulls, and this is a good example. They also have a tradition of
building burdensome, shallow, bluff-bowed boats but this is isn't one
like that!


Heh, that's only a few miles from my home...

You might be interested to know that there's a botter at our home
sailing club. It's a great boat for the North Carolina estuaries & sounds.

Not sure Gilligan. Who is Glen L?

I've been searching for the builder and designer since I found her.

You're just "jelious" that you're boat isn't as nice.

My boat is much nicer Doug.



Here is a hull with sweet curves, lots of room and solid as
steel.

"solid as steel"??? I thought your boat *was* steel?

exactly.


The hull & rig look nice but the deckhouse is a bit too high &
boxy.

Why thank you, full keel with board. 4.5 to 11 ft draft. The rig is
overbuilt steps to the tops of each mast, my inner fore stay is
removed
in this photo. The bow reminds me of a clipper and the stern is a
wide
hourglass takes the waves with ease fore or aft.

The high deckhouse allows for a very roomy engine room and sail
lockers. The high cabins allow a 6"6 overhead and serious tankage,
all
in cradles and hull tanks. I like a flush deck boat but they all
look
goofie under 62 foot and do not have the needed room below to
cruise
and have 2 people liveaboard in comfort IMO.

What. I googled Glen-L seems he's out of SoCal so I doubt he had
anything to do with the design of RedCloud. You trailor sailors may be
more hip to Glen-L but I've never heard of him. BFD.

Ever hear of Halter, Swiftship, Camcraft? Jerks!

If he didn't know who Herreshoff was, why would you expect him to know
Glen L?

No .

I'm not surprised that you cannot find anyone who will admit that they were
responsible for the design of Red Cloud.
