This was the funniest part of your post:

"Those of us who understand the
engineering and structural necessities of wooden boats see that almost
every time you try to get involved in such a conversation... Your dad
might have know a little about the boats he resold, but you obvously
were not really paying attention... Like I said,"

From 1947 to 1955, my old man was actively involved in building and
racing his own outboard powered hydroplanes and "utility" outboard
racers. These were for outboards ranging from hopped up Mercs to monster
Evinrude 50 hp engines. Very small boats, very highly stressed. I
suspect he understood the "engineering and structural necessities of
wood boats."

All I recall from your webpages are rowboats.
