Daniel Skira's LITTLE GLORIANA is 28' 4" overall from the tip of her bowsprit to the after end of her boom, 22' 9" on deck, and 15' 3" on the waterline, with a beam of 4" 9" and drawing 4' 3". Her displacement light is 2553 lb., 57% of which is in the external lead ballast keel. With four or five young sailors in the cockpit, or with two or three adults, LITTLE GLORIANA is expected to displace 2994 lb. making the ballast 49% of the displacement.

My parents' neighbour (i.e. two doors down from where I'm building my Shilling) has a 1/4 scale Bluenose. Similarly lovely.

I came across that boat when I was hunting down info on this little beauty - Cockle nae Fox nae Galena.

A pretty hot ride.

And are there plans available for such a beast?

Or even for Little Gloriana?

I suspect the scaled Bluenose to be a Bluenose jr.
