Sailed an Appledore 19 with 90 ft. of sail in a cat ketch rig for years and felt that it had to be as close as I get to a Nantucket sleigh ride without a few potentially lethal aspects.
I've been looking at the boats of this size because they have to be light enough to be launched by dolly on a sandy and stoney beach. This is about the most lightly built of any I've seen at 'the show'. I'll bet she's lively. Nice clean work, bravo!
Love that storm trisail! Remember the occasion? Snowstar was Greg Wells' boat before your Dad got her? And then it was out of the family for a few years after he quit sailing? That Danish epoxy must have predated the Gougeon Bros!! Glad to hear you got through that treatment and have had good followup reports. Stay strong, p
It's a development class, which make these things exciting. I like seeing the gunter rigs on these, more weight aloft, but maybe better sail control......

Wasn’t it Island Packet that used that beige custard color on all their boats? It was a color often used on canvas decks.28′ Beetle New Bedford Whaleboat Replica Sloop (2003) – MOLLY

Looking good Tom, as is Snowstar! There's a 36ft Nielsen yawl in the show that looked too rough to be Winsome, but might have been a sister?24′ 15 Square Meter Class Sloop (1958) – ELVENA
