For Your Amusement; A Frankenboat

Post by Rod »

Frankenboat - converting a known sailboat into something all together different.

New post up on my blog covers a Frankenboat fashioned from Peter Milne's most famous design.

Wonderful!
I especially like the name for it! It beats Keith R's Peggy ball.

Love it........exactly the sort of thing I was thinking of doing to (sort of) save the remains of my Merlin (see other earlier post)......far better than a viking funeral!

That is just wonderful!

We really don't have a class in the UK that you can do this sort of thing with (as a finished product - plenty of old boats to cut up, but no one to sail them with after).
