I love the wood, but that looks newer, any idea when it was built? If
I win powerball tonight I will build one just like it;) Always loved
the idea of the rope shear bumper.. very nice boat.

Be interesting to find out. Cold moulding has been around for a long
time, but that looks more like Sapelle to me than Mahogny or Teak and
that has not been really available in laminated sheets, at least to
the general consumer until the last decade or so. Of course I could be
way off. Anyway, if you can, ask him too what wood the hull is. I
will be here drooling in the meantime;) Thanks for the pics.

I was actually going to suggest composite, but decided not to chance
putting my foot that far into my mouth;) Just like my Takamine. Kind
of like making a boat out of a sheet of Formica. These new composites
are really nice, I can't see why more "woodgrain" boats are not coming
out. Thanks for the info, interior still looks like real wood, cept
for the cabinsole which I imagine is composite too.

Bill O'neil (sp?) from Seaworthy systems, may he rest in peace,
brought me to his home one day and showed me the 50 foot sailboat they
were building over on South Cove in Essex. The whole interior was done
in pigmented composite wainscoat and various types of cabinsole
colored and painted to look like wood, right down to 3d grain the guys
at the shop built into the molds. He trimmed that with real wood,
cherry, maple, and walnut iirc.. It was a beautiful mix of old school
and new technology. But all the white and main woodwork was completely
maintenance free.

Formica is a composite. It's okay for a countertop.

Pigmented composite wainscote sounds like a material I wouldn't want to
see on a boat. Composite what?

What they did was build molds for wood wainscoat cabinetry, using
blasted wood with a raised grain to make the panel molds. Then they
built molds for all the pillars, cabinetry, and much of the finish
work including the bead and cove cabinsole and celing panels, and
poured them out of resin, kind of like making a boat hull in a mold.
Start with laminating wax and then pigment, and then pour in the
composite material. Trust me, this stuff looked like wood and with the
hardwood accents, you would have lived on this boat never known. Yes,
he knew it was overkill, but he had the technology, and the manpower
to do it so he did. The idea was never, and I mean never, having to do
any manitenance on 95% of the "woodwork and bright" on the boat, ever.
This was a huge project to be sure. He had a full time carpenter/
composite guy for over a decade, who was backed up by Seaworthy
Systems R+D, designers, engineers, tooling, suppliers, shops, and
technology. He built it right in his backyard, overlooking the cove.
It was to be a grand retirement boat for Bill, he only got to sail it
once, very close to the end which he was aware of. They said it was a
perfect sailing day, great weather, great wind, not to much... Just a
perfect day.. I often wonder who is sailing her now, hopefully someone
is, she was a beauty.

I thought "Pangea" was a unique name .... until I checked the documentation
data base.
There are seven or eight documented boats with that name.

Last time I checked though there was only one "Soul Source". That name
came about because I bought the Navigator shortly after my company received
a large, sole source contract .... meaning we had no competition. To
recognize the contract award, I just changed "sole" to "soul".

It is actually spelled both ways. You will find numerous university web
sites hich have it listed as Pangaea.

You can also find web sites where they spell it Pangaea, and find the
maps they show have it listed as Pangea.

If you go to Dictionary.com, you will see most dictionaries say it can

I checked on that. Both spellings are acceptable, although to the purest
the two have slightly different meanings when translated from Greek.

BTW.... If and when the continents drift back together again, which some
scientist claim will happen, the new continent will be called, "Pangea
Ultima".

Pangaea is definitely the Greek spelling, and Pangea is definitely one
of the correct ways to spell the old continent.

I never really fit in at Amity. Transferred there halfway through my
sophomore year and left halfway through my senior year. Graduated high
school back up here in Norwell, MA.

Amity was full of rich kids and my family was far from rich. The culture
was a bit too snobby for me. A regional school, I think it included Orange,
Woodbridge (where we lived) and Bethany. Some of the nicest, down-to-earth
people (IMO) were from the (then) hick, farming town of Bethany.

Hey! I lived in Westville. To us, Woodbridge and parts of Orange were

My father's boat store was in Orange, on the Boston Post Road. The
marina was in Milford. As I was growing up, Orange changed dramatically.

Yes, as the size of the "pond" shrinks it will bring Europe within our
fuel range.

Way cool, and saving the $1M+ of a Nordhavn or the indignity of
regressing to sail propulsion. :-)

That's nothing of course compared to being able to jump in your car
and drive over to the French Riviera for a few days of quality time
with all of those cute little European babes who forgot half of their
