Re: [bolger] Re: Bolger Design List --- 360 round figure missing number count

Yes, 505 a new one!

Also, I have added a feature to my design listing where you can jump
directly to a numbered design by appending "#000" to the url.

So for this new boat #505 "Robert Blessing",

http://hallman.org/bolger/isometrics#505

...takes you directly to the listing. Similar with the other numbered designs:

I saw a picture of this boat elsewhere, probably the Sept/Oct issue of WoodenBoat.

In the latest issue of MotorBoats (http://www.woodenboat.com/motorboats-magazine)
there is a picture of Bolger design #505, said to be related to the California Lobsterboat. This issue can be found at news stands.

I recall reading PCB explain his numbering somewhere, but forget where. His numbering system prior to roughly 1960 were "numbered" with MO-YR-(# of that year), then phased into (# of total)-MO-YR after about design #100, then roughly around #145 dropped the MO-YR prefix.

The counting goes on...

Only a relative few designs from the earlier PB&F numbering system such as #010-ii-57 Poohsticks, #190 7/65 Morning Light 22, and Gloucester Gull 140-11-60 (Light Dory Type 4), are found on the list. Was this numbering system solely for proprietory designs available from the PCB design office, or was it also consistently applied to designs for other plan sales proprietors such as Jim Orrell?

Giving this a bump again...

I have recently discovered a way to include hyperlinks to the Yahoo
Bolger Group "files", (though you must already have joined and be
logged into the respective Bolger Yahoo groups).

Plus hyperlinks to the Instantboats website. I have added these to my
'isometric' compendium.

Personally I am finding this to be a convenient research tool, helpful
to study and understand the PB&F opus. You might find these newly
added links useful too, I am sharing this tool here:
