Peterson's "Susan" as a Cutter for sale

[RodB]

I know many are interested in Peterson's "Susan", so I thought the only Susan hull built as a cutter would be of interest..... It is for sale now...on yachtworld...

The owner of this gaff cutter added cockpit combings that were not in the original design...???, but the hull is the same as "Susan" with one less mast... resullting in a little more open interior... The Susan hull sure is a looker...!










This is the Sistership to "Susan"... "Krenie" owned by David Longstreet... the schooner closeup



Heres the differences in the interiors....

You know Rod Ive been thinkin about you... you really REALL need to buy THIS boat!

Shes a sweetheart isnt she?... Now this takes me back a bit to a couple of discussions we had awhile ago now about the cutter redesign... and jeeez its bloody amazing but hey you were right!... It does open her up a fair bit inside eh!

Well Shane, I don't want a carvell boat, I live in hot Texas.... but she is very aesthetically appealing. I think I could find a hell of a boat for a lot less than $200,000 that was cold molded... or build my own choice. I think the builder of "Susan" here will have invested about $60K in materials, engine, etc...everything not counting labor... by the time he is finished...

This cutter is way out of my price range and the cockpit combings make it look kinda weird...)))

Thanks for the thoughts, but I still may build Herreshoff's "Pleasure"...
