The Cape Cod Marlin is a Nathaniel Herreshoff design. Captain Nat and Commander Alberg may have been distant cousins because Herreshoff dna is clearly present in the Commander, the Ariel and other Alberg designs. According the the builder, Cape Code Shipbuilding, "The Marlin is a wonderful midsize keep sloop when you want the accommodations of cabin space without a full cruising boat. The Marlin is offered in a day sailing version with plenty of cockpit space and a smaller cabin and a cruising version with more cabin space and a self bailing cockpit. Being enlarged from the H-12 1/2 design, both versions deliver performance you expect from a Captain Nat design." Cape Cod Shipbuilding will build you one of these wholesome craft for (better sit down for this) a mere $80 thousand bucks.
