Just a heads-up: Britt Bros, one of L.F.H.'s favorite builders, was located on the Saugus River in Lynn, Mass., not Salem. Further fascinating details can be had in Roger Taylor's recent, 2 Vol. biography of L. Francis Herreshoff.
Thanks Craig! Well, I guess we have a mutual admiration society going on here. It would be great to get together and trade stories. We both have cockpits designed for just that, so we are in good shape. All we have to do is make it happen!
Good to see a club-jib arrangement with properly tapered club, individual seizings that are loose on the club to allow for foot adjustment under sail and sheets that are to be tended . It is rare to see it done right these days. I grew up sailing on Boston's North Shore and Maine, so no stranger to this wonderful design. It is great fun to think of one being enjoyed so far away. Fair Breezes! - Art (EASTWARD)
Always a thrill to see you out there! I was blessed with a Rozinante in my 20s. Nothing has ever come close since, even though I continued to be blessed with amazing vessels in their own right throughout my life. Thanks for the memories and fair breezes! – Art (EASTWARD)
