Ed Monk design (Curlew), 1932 Rudder Magazine
Built 2020, Santa Rosa, CA
Okume sides & deck, 9/16” yellow cedar bottom plank
She was my Covid project. It took most of a year to complete the build. That included fabricating most of the fittings (gooseneck , cheek blocks, rudder hardware, bow fitting, etc.) I cast most of the bronze deck and trunk hardware myself.
She has a 1/4″ steel plate centerboard. Her transom and rudder are white oak. Frames, coamings and rub rail are ash as well as her stern sheets. The mast is set up on a tabernacle. Kame Richards at Pineapple Sails in Alamrda, CA made her sails.
