Can anyone help and identify this boat for me?

[Cliff B]

It is from a Washington Rural Historical site. It was moored off Rosario Resort, probably around 1920.

It is gaff rigged and reminds me a bit of a Buzzards Bay, but I don't have enough knowledge of the types to pin it down. I was not able to post the pic here, due to a lack of savvy on the techno side.

More info please. Do you mean ID the specific boat or just the design? Anything else you can tell us?

That is all that I have. I am not looking at identifying the specific boat, rather the type design. How did you manage to post this picture? I tried an half dozen times, with no success. No further info available, other than it was in the San Juan Islands, between Seattle and Victoria.

This could be a tough one. thats a fairly typical design of that era.

Here’s how to post photos on this forum:

First - don’t attach photos. Only a tiny version will display.

Second - Post the photos on the web. Use your own website, or a free image hosting service like www.flickr.com, picturetrail, photobucket, etc.

Once posted on the web, right-click the photo to copy the URL (web address). Always test first by pasting the photo URL into the location field (http:// ) of a web browser and see if the photo displays.

Third - once posted on the web, try this procedure while logged in to this Forum:

1. Click the “User CP” link in the browser window in the top left of the menu bar.

2. Click the “Edit Options” link about halfway down the left column.

3. In the “Misc Options” at the bottom of the next page, select “Enhanced Interface” from the pulldown list.

4. Once this interface has been selected, in any “Reply” window you can click the “insert photo” icon --> a little yellow square icon with the stamp in the upper right corner, the mountains in the lower center. http://woodenboat.com/forum/images/editor/insertimage.gif

5. Once the little dialog box titled “Please enter the URL of your image” comes up, paste the URL of the photo in the field.

TROUBLESHOOTING:
If unsure of the procedure, test first by pasting the photo URL into the location field (http:// ) of a web browser.

Remember, the PHOTO URL will end in .jpg, not .htm or html. URLs ending in .htm are the page that the image is at, not the photo location itself. If the photo URL ends in other code, try deleting everything after the “xxxxxx.jpg” part of the URL to get it to display on web forums.

In Flickr, view the image by clicking on it. Then click the small link named ALL SIZES with the magnifying glass icon.

Once the larger image is displayed, scroll down and you'll see two options for linking the image on websites. Select and copy the second one -- or just right-click the image to get the image location.

From above:

Once posted on the web, right-click the photo to copy the URL (web address). Always test first by pasting the photo URL into the location field (http:// ) of a web browser and see if the photo displays.

Remember, the PHOTO URL will end in .jpg, not .htm or html. URLs ending in .htm are the page that the image is at, not the photo location itself. If the photo URL ends in other code, try deleting everything after the “xxxxxx.jpg” part of the URL to get it to display on web forums.

Thorne, thanks for helping everyone with their photos.

My first thought about the boat was 'BB Crowninshield'.

Thorne, thanks for helping everyone with their photos.

Its the least I can do to try to repay this Forum for all the excellent advice I've gotten over the past four years.

Don't have the extensive building and materials experience that some of the Forumites have, so I make do by helping with "tech support" = my occupation of choice in the real world.

Zidu,

Can't remember the name of the schooner under "Victory's" stern, but I think she's of [fairly] recent build, built in Russia, and re-named after the schooner that brought Nelson's body hame after Trafalgar.

[Zidu]

...... the schooner that brought Nelson's body hame after Trafalgar.
Thank you CapnJ2ds, it helped me to find his name.;)
It is HMS Pickle replica.
