Remarks:
This boat is a copy of a traditional Victorian vessel, originally designed by George Holmes, and was built as a student project at the Falmouth Centre for Marine Studies by the students, as also was another of strip planked construction in 1991 (building report serialised in The Boatman). She has traditional style cordage (Spunflex) and her fittings are in bronze. A double-ender, she is reported to be both fast and stable. A highly unusual, extremely pretty, craft which is bound to be the centre of attention wherever she goes.
