Classic wooden yachts in Hout Bay
Well the Vertue 26 on the left is a classic, the Dix 43 on the right which is also a wood construction is nearly fifteen years old now so has some way to go before its classic status.
I have no idea how long the carvel planking took to do on the smaller yacht but I know the hull on the right took one man six weeks to assemble. The Vertue 26 is now fifty years old and the Dix 43 will be fifteen years old next January 17th 2015.
Not actually a www.www.com kit but we could make a plan on a bulkhead kit set.
Classic yachts, what are they?
Well if we cancel out the plastic new ones and all of the more modern multihulls but not the Wharram cats, we are looking on average at a 50% split of what we can call a classic. Any yacht say twenty plus years old will soon be a classic, even one design racing yachts like the local L26 are at thirty years old very much classics, I suppose its a mind thing?

Castine Camden Classic Race
Today I flew to Maine and I am currently in the town of Castine. Tomorrow we are participating in the Castine Classic Race onboard Bandera, the 57' S&S Hinckley pictured above. She has just come out of a major refit. The Castine Classic is the first of three races including the Camden Feeder Race and Eggemoggin Reach Regatta. We aren't eligible for these last two races as one must be a wooden boat.
There are a bunch of S&S boats participating such as Mermaid, Anna, 3 New York 32s, and Palawan. There may be more. I'll try to get some images tomorrow and get them posted.
