Took these on Easter Sunday. This boats has been moored by the Bayshore Inn for several weeks, it's from Holland. Steel hull with a lot of wood in it. I was just taken back by those big honk'n leeboards.

Here is proof that one should double check that all the weldings been done before launching.
I don't know what the story is behind this stern, it's been here for years at the old drydock in N.Vancouver, this is the site where they hope to build the new Vancouver Maritime Museum which can only display 5% of it's 150,000 artifacts.

I was just at Lonsdale yesterday and wondered about this stern section. Does anyone know what the story is?
