60' LOA Steel Centerboard Yawl

60 LOA          50 LWL

14' Beam          4'6" Draft (9')

Early Draft, Also round hull fiberglass

An easily driven hull with balanced overhangs, easy buttocks, and wide flush deck. This is a four chine boat, but interior framing is as a two chine over numerous full and partial bulkheads.

 

 

33' LOD Canoe Yawl

33 LOA          26 LWL

9' Beam          3'6" Draft (7')

Early Draft

For Steel, plywood, or round-hull Fiberglass. This is a modern take on L.F. Herreschoff's Rozinante, slightly bigger with full headroom below.

50' LWL Steel Centerboard Ketch or Yawl

Yacht or Training Ship

Shown with or without Commercial grade superstructure, Single or twin screw, fuel capacity can be upwards of 2000 gallons, Ice capable. I like a Ship, and I'm getting old enough to appreciate a solid pilothouse. I can live with chines as long as they are faired well, and it is the most efficient method of building a steel boat.

Steeving Bowsprit for weather and running a spinnaker. Centerboard gets her upwind. This is a fairly simple dual chine fantail stern hull meant for heavy bottom plate and built up keel. The Flush-deck was fleshed as a training ship that could take 16 teenagers.

 

Steel Magnolia

Commercial grade steel, narrow low-effort Hull, ability to reach good speeds with much less horsepower. This is a very classical design with a hull adapted to steel and it's high-speed vs. weight issues. I'm happy to jazz this up for a client, the plate development again is what drives me. Then again, I like old fashioned half work-boat types since I grew up on them.

On an aside, we thought this would make a good "Contractor Yacht", taking crew out to the site during the week and letting the owner and wife cruise on the weekends.
