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.

While in Maine last week I visited the Brooklin Boat Yard to check on progress with the 25' center console we have under construction there. The picture shown above shows the current status: hull is planked, faired, skeg and stern tube installed, structure is in and interior is going in now. This boat should launch in about 6 weeks.

Here are a couple of computer renderings of the completed boat (missing some cushions and deck details), generated from our 3D modeling program.
