Antique boat plans

[ronagf]

I have a family heirloom I'm trying to get some information about. They are the plans for a Great South Bay Class P Sloop, drawn in 1910 by a boat architect named John Connolly who worked out of Brooklyn, NY (Sheepshead Bay). If anyone knows anything about the architect or the boat model, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Welcome to the Forum! You might try locking this thread and starting another with the name of the boat design as the title - more likely to get a response.

No luck searching online I take it?

Google for
"Great South Bay" P Class Sloop connolly
yields a couple of references to Connolly designed P class boats.

Connolly is mildly famous IIRC. even I have heard of the guy and i think race boats are a waste of paper. I think you might do the google thing and look in the google books section.
