I am looking to build a cedar strip boat to use around home in Portland
Oregon and to tow around as a tender when Sailing in the San Juan's.
I like the looks of the Newfound Wherry with its ability to sail and
row. http://www.newfound.com/wherry.htm It just doesn't look too much
fun to sail into the wind. Does anyone know of a similar design that is
sloop rigged and about the same size? Is it possible to change the sail
design to a Marconi rig on this one? Or am I just asking too much from
a small boat?
