Prettiest boat under 16 feet?

[KenStocker]

I was following a thread about the prettiest boat under 30'. How about the votes for the prettiest boat under 16'?

Prettiest one I ever had.

Pretty boat! Tell us more, what is she?

[Pelirrojo]

It's right at 16 but the herreshoff 12 1/2 is up there.

Coming in just a smidge under 16', a Bartow Melonseed:

OOooohhh. I do like Wizbang's little charmer. And as a former Flying 15 owner I've always wanted a F10 for my grandkids. In fact, now I'm thinking of a Flying 5 for the pond at the bottom of our garden.

My bride put this YouTube together years ago. I only sailed her 3v times then sold her. The chap recently contacted me to offer me first take to buy her back.

Good idea, we have also had under 12ft but to a small boat guy 4 feet are oceans apart. Off to think ��

I have had a bunch of plans in boats this size, but i will start with this two... Vivier Ebihan





And Paul Fishers Able



JWs Navigator has to be included too....

[KenStocker]

You all obviously had to know I wouldn't have started this without my own choice, so here she is. My choice might have something to do with the fact that it led to starting starting to build her, or I would be building tammie-norrie-dinghy-rigged.jpgsomething else. Several of the above were in serious contention, but Tammie Norrie tammienorrie-05.jpgwon the day for me.

Built one of the same (more or less).

Can confirm, prettiest boat.

What I think is a 15' Selway Fisher ''Lillie''. From the Hobart Wooden boat Festival.

Beautiful little boat! I've got to ask, though, what Craigslist has to do with it? The title made me think you'd been given the hull, but it looks like you built it. smh (As the young people say...)

[dalekidd]

That's a tough assignment. Not sure, but this is my favorite picture of a boat under 16', Barrett Faneuf's Yuko, a Welsford Navigator.

I think there are prettier boats already here, but here’s my contribution

[neil.henderson]

What about an Oughtred Gannet ?

[The Q]

My boat (Blue Moon) will be the prettiest, but then I'm biased, and I've got to say that to keep her happy..

The Gloucester Gull has ultimate purity of purpose, inexpensive to build, and terrifying beauty. Bolger was right that he's now in heaven for that design. Incredibly seaworthy, by the way.

Don't even think about adding a sail. She's a rowing boat who will teach you more than any other about putting your muscles and soul close to the water.

The faering definitely deserves a place on this list. Iain Oughtred's Elf here:

I sorta like my skiff.

[WBViking]

Someone beat me to my nomination - but the Oughtred Elf (or larger Elfyn) stirs me....lovely boat

Well Ken, I just stumbled across this thread and I think you know where I stand on the matter.

Maybe not the prettiest but my contribution. Built it for my sister in 2012 and resides at her place on Muskellunge Lake in Northern Wisconsin. She still rows almost daily while there and loves it. Spars, sail and rigging were also built but never used. Maybe some day!

Yes Steve, I did have a sneaking hunch I knew where you might come down on this. Go figure, right?
