One of the most elusive boats bandied about on the Forum. Karl Stambaugh has posted pictures of his MIST in the water!

Good find! I am another with the plans rolled up in my cupboard.

A perfect boat for the conditions she's shown in, but note that her forward sections are sharpie-esque. It is for this reason alone that I prefer the idea of paketi to mist for my somewhat more animated water.

It's nice to see someone has built her and done a good job of it.

Excellent! Neat looking too.

Billy,

She appears to be more skipjack than sharpie to me. And once that boat is heeling, won't the chine present a rather nice V to waves?

That boat looks like her mother had carnal relations with a Stevenson Weekender! ;) Looks better than dear old dad though. :D

PaulThe skipjack I know from my Chesapeake bay youth refers to a specific raked rig on a flat bottom or very shallow deadrise with a fancy clipper bow. And nameboards--gotta have nameboards. Somewhere my Dad has one of the nameboards from the Geneva May, or a good copy, and a print showing the Geneva May in all her glory.

Yes, as I understand it, the heeled chine of a sharpie is supposed to present a bit of deadrise to the entry, and Mist has some deadrise to her hull to boot. I have never sailed on a sharpie but have sailed and owned some boats with less-than-fine forward sections and not had a pleasant ride. I'm no expert to be sure but I feel like, in a seaway, fine sections are fine and flat sections are tiresome after a short while.

Thus, as I said, the boat pictured is perfect for the water as shown. But my seas are steeper and shorter and I would prefer a smoother ride.

Venchka , great photos and site. I've been looking at this boat for many years and have the study plans I think I'm going to have to build it. I also like the 29' motorsailer Bayside.
Thanks again.

There you go. Drag the completed boat down to Skagway. Throw her in the water. I'll start from the other end. Meet you in the middle for a cold beer! :D

You have 6 years, 9 months and 4 days to launch. Oops! Better add a few months to your launch date or you won't have any liguid water. :D

Ok, but I'll put in at Haines and meet you on down the way.
Gary..... :D

Haines is cool. Less crowded with cruise ships than Skagway?

OH, DUH! I get it! Haines is a lot closer by road.

My suspicions have been confirmed. I thought the background looked very much like the Canadian Shield. The MIST pictured above was evidently built in Labrador.

Gary-I am undecided about the jumping off point. I think north to south would be best. I would always be sailing toward home into warmer climates. That means taking the ferry to Juneau, Sitka, someplace. On the other hand, I might just throw the boat in Puget Sound and head north. I have time to ponder this.

I also haven't ruled out MIST. Fine boat for a body to go exploring in.
