Next weekend sees the 28th annual
Wooden Boat Show, at Mystic Seaport in Connecticut. This is a great event in a wonderful venue, with a wide variety of wooden boats to view, or even go for a ride. We will have our
Argie 15 on the village green, as well as a display of our designs at our booth in the main tent.

Mystic Seaport is a living museum, showing life as it was in a New England seafaring community hundreds of years ago. It includes displays of many aspects of life in that community, from milling wood for the shipbuilding operations to the drug store and doctor's office. Rides on a variety of traditional craft are also available to visitors.
This is a gorgeous part of the world and we always enjoy our annual visit there. Come to the show and drop by our booth and
Argie 15 to talk boats. The show runs from Friday 28th June through to Sunday 30th and we will be there for the duration.
This reminds a bit of my Tern and Grebe fatties especially in plan view. Meant to be quick and easy to build hence the flat bottom ala sharpie. Good luck at the show!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment. I don't know the two designs that you reference. This hull does have a flat bottom but it is not a sharpie, it has two chines each side.
