This boat was designed for a Canadian family based on the classic North Sea trawler model. The vessel exudes this workboat heritage in heavy timber construction. The design features a trunk cabin forward, pilothouse amidships, and an aft trunk cabin.

The boat is carvel planked with Western Red Cedar and Douglas Fir and fastened to 1 3/4" x 2 3/8" White Oak frames on 12" centers. The deck is Western Red Cedar on Alaska Yellow Cedar beams. The cabin house is fir and fir plywood. Fasteners are galvanized boat nails.

Fir bilge keels (roll chocks) were installed in 2001 to reduce vessel roll.

The boat carries 1400 pounds of internal lead ballast.

Waterline Boats / Boatshed does not independently verify capacities and measures, which are reported from seller-provided information and/or literature.
