There was a bolger design that I read of in Messing aboutin boats it
was ment to be built in austrailia or New Zealand and sailed to
england where its 6foot 8 beam would allow it the explore the narrow
cannels wish I could remember the name it was not built but it sire
seems like a world worthy dream craft.

My wife is also has fine lines and is built for speed. I can never
ignore her for long.

OTH. She is taller that I am, and that's what's giving me the
standing headroom while cooking problem. As I said before, speed
costs.

Now this is definitely taking things too far!:-) I think it's time for a
support group. Steve Anderson

P.S. Would your comely wife like to come down here to Florida while you
finish the boat?

Do you have any material that includes LFH's Meadowlark design? It's
along the lines you are thinking of, give or take a few (ok, a lot)
of details and the difference between ketch and schooner.

I spent the other night in bed, ignoring my comely wife and thumbing
through the pages of Chappelle's "American Sailing Craft."

Since so many of my current design problems would be solved by making
the LSx2 a fuller (if not beamier) boat, I want to see if I could
figure out why I have such an attachment for her fine line.

The answer lies in the racing schooners of the late 19th and early
20th century. A quick comparison of the plan view of the LS and any
of these boats reveals pleasing similarities; both the shoal draft
varieties and their later deep keeled sisters. These are the lines of
speed, and speed costs.

Further consideration of what I *really* want from this boat is in order.

YIBB,
