After careful consideration and study, we have come to a decision on the selection of our first boat project.
I would like to thank everyone again for their suggestions, advice, offers of help and kind words.
The envelope please. . . . .
And the winner is . . . . The HERRESHOFF / HAVEN 12 1/2 FOOTER!
So many people contacted me on and off line to suggest this boat that the verdict was easy. Not to mention the fact that there is an excellent book on the subject of building it.
Now, for the hard part. Should we look for a used one to rebuild? (as some people suggested), or should we start from plans? Perhaps a combination of both is in order?
Anyway, if anyone can point me in the direction of "used boats" listings, (other than the obvious WBM) Please do so and I will be eternally greatful.
Many Thanks
Richard
