For some pictures, look in Photos under "Bjorn's WDJ". There was a
long writeup in MAIB which is probably around somewhere. There was
also an article about WDJ and St. Valerie in WoodenBoat some time ago.

Excellent point. When I inquired about Tennessee or another boat for
relaxed river cruising with modest power, PBF suggested Jochems
without the sailing rig, and the motor well moved to the centerline.
They even sent along a profile sketch of the modified Jochems, with
the rig, leeboards, and billethead whited out, and a bimini over the
cockpit.

An additional point of view about PCB and his backlist of designs is
that they are not all uniformly good, and he consideres many to be
superceded by later designs. For example, someone mentioned on the
list a little while ago that folks inquiring about Whalewatcher are
redirected to the Jochems schooner.
By the same token, when answering questions on this list, I try to
quote PCB when I can, but I am mindful that he may have changed his
mind since the quoted material was published.
