The man is truly amazing, I wonder where he googled up that there was a

No. Neal is misspelling both his middle and last name. The man he's
referring to is L. Francis Herreshoff.

Neal spent the day surfing and googling and came up with one reference
to "Sir Frances Herreschoff" as the designer of "Ileola." However, the
design shows up in the book "Sensible Cruising Designs" by L. Francis
Herreshoff.

Sir Frances Herreschoff used the female spelling instead of the male

Bwaaahahahhahahhahahhahahahhhhahahhahhahhahahahhah ahah!

Sir Frances Herreschoff has the anchor named after him.

Halsey Herreshoff et al were naval architects who never had an
anchor named after them.

If you are a man you will apologize for your insolence.
