Big Lynx
In Small Boats, Phil Bolger talks about the possibility of scaling
everything up to make a bigger Lynx. In fact his suggestion was "if you
doubled her size all over you would have a very, very roomy thirty-footer,
and I think an able and fast one-with a thirty-five-foot main boom and
750-square-foot mainsail."
Does anyone know if it has been scaled up at all? I'm interested in the idea
of one scaled up 1.5 times all over, which would make it about the same size
as Prancing Pony.
Also apart from the one in the photo's section with a bow sprit and the
original in the book I have never heard of any others been built. Are there
any others?
