Re: #589
Isn't #589 the Catfish Beachcruiser?

I've read that MAIB article and Phil is actually writing about John
Tuma's Catfish. Believe that the "Bobcat" reference in the article
is a typo....

That must be a pretty old MAIB magazine, as they
quite using the '66 Atlantic St.' address some time back.
Also be aware that some of their prices from the 1990's
published in the magazine have since gone up.
I have no doubt that they will treat you fair. Sometimes
they cannot fax you back when your fax number is
written wrong, or missing.
Try also sending postal mail to
P.O. Box 1209, Gloucester, MA, 01930

Does anybody know if this is still the fax for Bolger and Friends...
(978) 282-1349
I ordered something up there, sent a check for $50 and didn't get
what I asked for. I faxed a response up there and have received no
reply.
I had ordered what I thought was an upgrade to the Tom/Bob Cat -
something in between the Chewbacco and the Tom/Bob Cat...described
in an old Messing Around in Boats article...here's a quote:
"Bolger on Design. Design #589 Plywood Catboat (Optional Revision)
At the end it says:
"Plans of Bobcat, including the new optional layout on four 22" x
34" and three 17" x 22" sheets of plans with a keyed specification,
are available for $100 to build one boat from Phil Bolger & Friends,
66 Atlantic St., Gloucester, MA 01930-1627. Fax (978) 282-1349. For
those who already own their set of Bobcat plans, the three upgrade
sheets are $50 to build one boat. "
Does anyone know anything about this #589? I had sent the $50 for
the upgrade as I already have the plans for the Tom/Bob Cat but
received a letter back for a mod to the Tom/Bob Cat
but no check refund.
Any direction or clues here?
Thanks everyone...
