Interested in learning more about the small boat. where is it located? Is it dry-sailed from a trailer typically or left in water? What is the age of the build? Who was the designer? Is the trailer roadworthy and ready to go?
Also,
I’d written a few months back re: info on doug fir timbers 3″ x 12″ and 22′ long but did not receive a reply. I was interested in for a home project in Sheboygan, WI.
Hi Glenn, the boat is located in Sidney, BC and owned by our owner Jan Nielsen. It’s a Paul Gartside design built by Silva Bay Boatworks. To my knowledge, it is not kept in the water year round.
