We lengthened the bow sprite and put a boomkin on her to lengthen the rig to keep the same square footage in the rig and to balance around the same center of resistance and effort. She sailed good but was slower than Bolgers rig by a lot. We lived aboard and sailed the Caribbean for severl years. A great boat.

Thanks. That design is one of my favorites, though I'm sure that I'd like the lug rig too much.

Hi all, I ran across some pictures in the attic that I hadn't been able
to find. They are pictures of my aluminum Bolger Cat yawl, Wolftrap,
under construction. I placed them in my album entitled Wolftrap in
the Bolger cartoon group. If you have an interest in metal boats go
take a look. I still have a lot of comments to put below the pictures.
At the present time I am to busy with the Tea Party to do
it.
