Design 738 25 Sport Fisherman



I can't tell you much about this design, done in 1946. The boat was designed to be built of wood: typical Sparkman & Stephens scantlings of white oak for keel and deadwood, mahogany frames and planking and canvas covered plywood decks. Powered was to be provided by a single Chrysler Royal 140 hp gasoline engine.

Unfortunately I can't tell you her name, if she was built or if she was who built her. I would imagine she would be similar in style to design #1536, Cleopatra.

Here is the layout.
