Does anyone here have an inkling as to who she used, or does, belong to? I just can't understand how someone can own one of these boats and not know about this association.

On another page now, I notice she has a woodie rub-rail! And I see it's mounted below the hull deck seam. I like it like that! It had always been my intention to cover said seam with 113's rub-rail. It has a cove milled in the backside that will hold lots of sealant/adhesive and allow the wood to only touch the hull on the top and bottom edge of the backside. Maybe. Waddya think about the location of this Key Largo girl's appliance.

Maybe this warrants relocation to another thread.

Funny, I was going to comment on that too.

I like the idea of those kind of rub rails, but something just doesn't seem quite right though. Maybe the way they terminate on the bow? Are they too thick? Bristol Channel Cutters do it just right. Maybe the look needs good sized toe rails/bulwarks like Ebb's and some nice bronze external chain plates, or am I being too cliche?

Looks like the boat has larger forward portals too.

Nice looking boat though. Looks like she was well-loved by her owner.

In the first image it looks as though the rub rail is loose at the front.
There is a small spear of light between the rub rail and the shadow.

Is a nice looking boat, and that rail does add to that look nicely.
