tom_pooles_boat Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 UNUSUAL BOAT PROJECT. My husband, a fine cabinetmaker and furniture maker, died 5 years ago. He left behind a handmade sailboat, I estimate over half done. The plans describe it as a 22-ft sailing dory, and have Capt. Jim Orrell’s name on them. Apparently, while he kept to the plan building the hull, and the rigging setup is traditional, he put a clipper bow on the boat. I do have the lead keel. I would appreciate any information or advice from boat guys on what to do with it. I’m not sure I can sell a half-completed boat, but it’s just too beautiful to live in the garage. I live in Boone, in western NC. front_849.jpg 57.69KB 0 downloads back end_918.jpg 113.52KB 0 downloads 3_508_detail top.jpg 120.02KB 0 downloads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennieG Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 It sure is pretty! I would recommend you post same on the woodenboat forum as it would reach the broader audience you might need. Best of luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
