What a hoot! Never mind that there are no proper gudgeons and
pintles,never mind that the aft deck is over fastned with
screws/nails 3 or 4 inches etc.....just throw lots of varnish on it
and call it a gentlemens yacht...I'm still laughing......and a June
Bug to boot!..........

Sorry,gotta go pee.......

If you follow the source of that clean drawing back to the YachtWorld
listing it came from, and click on "full specs", the listing brokerage has
entered the designer as: Grant Jones.



But googling this name along with Naval Architect or Yacht Designer brought
up no info - there IS a G.W.Jones & Assoc Naval Architects, but only active
in commercial vessels (drilling rig supply-boats, etc.), certainly not our
guy here.



So in one sense, we're no further knowing WHO the desiner is/was!



Wayne Gilham

..who knows his way around YachtWorld, as he's a yacht broker at Gig Harbor
Yacht Sales (WA)

Looks somewhat like one of Karl Stambaugh's Trailer Sailer designs:

Sure is one god awful ugly boat! The leeboards are too small; she
won't sail worth a damn. One of Bruce Kirby's would serve you better.
