Here's a big box of eye candy.

147 photos of scrumptious traditional master craftmanship (builder: David Pratt) on a 33' glass hull.
google the title above. (the smilie comes up too - guaranteed)

Nice.
How do you find this stuff, Ebb? And even though I am piss-poor $100K is a pretty fair price for that kind of hand crafted work. Without knowing I'd say you, sir, had a hand in building that baby...

Odd not having any coamings to divert water away from the footwell. I do believe she is the first I have ever seen with free run from stem to stern. Odder yet, she's offered as a daysailer/weekender!?

I'd like to offer one of my kidneys, right now, for that boat!;)

Tony,
The photos are thumbnailed all together on Boats.com
making it much easier to see what's there.

Must be the digital age from the huge number of rather eclectic photos.
But not one shot of the cockpit, straight-on. How could you avoid it?

I didn't see it until you pointed it out: NO coamings.
Maybe it's like the modern pickup, if you want running boards you pay extra.
Whomever had the boat built obviously was a breed of wet-arse sailors
or he just couldn't afford coamings at the time.
Pretty odd, eh?

A set of traditional coamings wouldn't look bad on that boat - what we can see of the cockpit!
