I read about Antonio Dias reputation, but I cannot find any of his designs on the web, nor a link or site about his projects.

I am mainly interested in sailboats below 30 feet.

If anyone can post here...

Thanks a lot

Thanks for the links, gareth. I've been wondering what he's been doing.

Thanks.
But how about his sailboats portfolio?

I have heard about Anabelle II, I was wondering what else he designed below 30 feet.

Thanks

All I did was a web search. You now have the ability to contact him.
In the past he has not allowed home building of his designs.
I've met him, he's an exceptionally nice guy.

I believe Annabelle II is in his book "Designer and Client" you could start there.

Ben Fuller has a Dias Harrier and probably keeps in touch with him. Last article in WB I know of was Oct 05, #186, about the Arey's Pond Daysailer.

I think there is contact information in last years issue of Small Boats from WoodenBoat as there was a piece on Harrier. Tony is also on Facebook.
