This design was originally intended for
the 26 mile crossing from Los Angeles
to Catalina Island. A 'camp' cruiser,
sleeping bag under a tent.

I joined Bolger 3 to have a look at your photos of Singlehander
Schooner as you suggested. Nice job. I've got a much better idea of
its proportions, and how it may function. For instance I now know

HH Payson & Co and give it some real thought. I'm really curious
about that rudder, and is the weighted centreboard of wood or solid
