February 7th, 2010 by godewindShe was designed and built by Knud Reimers at the Hästholm Boatyard near Stockholm in 1941 as Hull #1 of the 40sqmeter Seefahrtskreuzer class. Then changed by the same owner and designer to hull #2 of the Swedish Ö8 eight-meter class.
Her plans are in the maritime museum in stockholm andI have a copy of them as well as a history of owners from 1941 until now.
Her composite construction makes her a swift racer but has also presented the main problem through corrosion. mahagony on oak and steel. most oak frames sistered in 2004. douglas fir decks, no interior. needs new floors, dealing with corroded steel frames, new boom, mast repair, engine, sternpost and rudder.
This is a restoration project for a classic yacht lover who either knows a lot about boatbuilding or can afford at least ca. 70,000 to pay for the restoration (labor and material).
She is located on dry land in Sausalito.
I have done a lot of work on her, but am unable to continue and would love to see her go into caring hands. i.e.: for free! -

January 26th, 2010 by fgorschI have several thousand feet of western red cedar in 1/8″ strips, from 8″ to 16″ wide, and 12′ to 16′ long. This was to be used in resheathing a 42′ wooden ketch, but plans have changed. If interested, please call Rick at (916)777-5585 or Fred at (907)868-5484. Close to Rio Vista, CA. January 14th, 2010 by georgeoutlawReina Moana was hand built by Gene Wells on Kauai, Hawaii and is his last boat. The boat is 40ft, 7′2″, and draws 6 ft with a lead keel and small lead wing. She has been little used. She has a 17 hp Yanmar, with approx 50 hours on it, sail are in good condition, forward looking sonar, porta potty, sleep 4, 15 gals water, and diesel. She is extremely fast, and has been recorded at 13.4 knots on reefed main and genoa. She sails easily at 7-10 knots and can be singled handed easily. Gene put approx 160K of material in her, including hand carved knees for the deck, sika spruce, much mahogany, and cedar, fir. Unfortunately she is fiberglass sheathed and is delaminating. I am now 69 and don’t have the will for a restoration project. Reina Moana is seriously for sale FOB Hawaii for $20,000, less than the salvage value of her machinery, mast etc. Contact georgeandmary [at] mac.com. January 8th, 2010 by johngeering Schooner W.N. Ragland (www.wnragland.com), a fully refit 101′ LOA, 85′ LOD, built in 1913, as a Baltic Trader, originally used to haul granite, is offered in 1/ or 1/2 shares at $285k per share.
She is constructed and fitted with the finest materials available for stable, safe, and environmentally responsible global travel and living for then owner entertainment artist Neil Young, who owned her for over 35 years and had an open checkbook policy for the duration of his custody of this magnificent ship. She will shortly be enroute to Ventura, CA to be berthed there until sold fractionally in 1/4 shares at US$285,000. each FIRM & she is currently offered at $1.14 million. The current owner maintains her in sail-away condition to any part of the world and she would make a wonderful asset for 4 (or fewer) of your members to acquire ! She is especially suited for film and charter work, as explained on the ‘Film & Charter’ page of the web site. Also, she can be maintained by just one full time captain as she is solely maintained by the current live-aboard owner & captain; a roll-o-dex on board keeps track of crew. People crew this boat for the price of a plane ticket. The captain would also need a first mate on a casual as needed basis for 2-man jobs and when the boat actually goes out. We can discuss the details later, but these will be the first questions from serious buyers. They should be able to staff the boat and cover maintenance if it is a good captain for $100-120k per year (captain, plus supplies, plus a $7k haul out every two years) plus slip, which is 1800 per month @ Ventura. She would be perfect for a sailing club of 4 individuals. If they bought shares for a part of the boat, and formed a corporation for chartering and film work, they would be able to use her more for personal use than calling her a full time charter boat and the charter corp would only own shares in part of her. This allows greater use, with the same write off benefits than if the whole boat was owned and called a charter boat. In other words, split the boat in to 8 shares, and each individual gets 1 share for personal use, and the 4 remaining shares are bought by an LLC charter company, owned by the 4 individuals. Then half the boat is for pleasure and can be used for a solid 6 months, and they still get what ever the IRS says they can use out of the remaining 6 months, and charter her out for the remainder, creating income. NOTE: Please consult with your accountant and/or tax attorney regarding all potential tax benefits ! The present owner/captain will stay on for a few months as a consultant (work with the captain, but not serve them drinks) and train a new captain and find one if the new owners so require and the current owner would take the captain out and train him, her or them and provide the maintenance drill, and make sure the owners are comfortable with the boat. We want her only in good hands! The W.N. Ragland would be interested in participating in the August ‘10 Tall Ship Race if not sold prior to the event ! And then perhaps by the new owners!

December 15th, 2009 by csinnexI am searching for three boats that were formerly owned by my husband and/or my husband and myself. I would just like to know that they are OK, and have good homes. 1) Wings
Wings was owned by my husband, W. John McCormick of Honolulu, from the late 1970s until the mid-1980s when I think we put her into my name. Angleman ketch, 39 or 40 ft. I think the model is Sea Spirit. The boat’s previous name: Maria. When named Maria, she was owned by (Tim?) Gold on Maui. We sold Wings in 1990 to Don Rose in Honolulu. 2) Eolo
Eolo was owned by W. John McComick of Honolulu during most of the 1970s, before I knew him. I feel sure she was a wooden boat. Tim Gold acquired Eolo in the late 1970s in a swap for Maria/Wings. I believe Eolo was a 65 ft schooner. 3) Bernice
Bernice was owned by W. John McCormick, then of Toronto, in (I’m guessing here) the 1950s and 1960s. A large wooden boat built in the early 1900s, I believe. He sailed her on and across Lake Ontario. If you have any information about these boats, please contact me at the e-mail address below. Aloha, Ceil Sinnex

 2009 Corinthian Wooden Boat Show Step back into 1880 and the heyday of the Bristol Channel Cutters. Spray is a restored 1958 interpretation of a Pilot Cutter known for their speed and seaworthiness on the English Channel. Designed by renowned Pacific Coast Marine Architect William Garden, this Alaskan Yellow Cedar and Oak Vessel was stoutly rebuilt in 2003. She sports a new 26hp marine diesel engine for years of reliable and efficient service. Take her out on brisk summer Days on S.F. Bay. Her infinitely adjustable Gaff Cutter Rig allow year round sailing both in the fury of San Francisco summer afternoon winds, and the relative calms of winter sailing. Spray is known all over the Bay, especially for her unique “Halibut Schooner” stern. She is much admired and receives compliments everywhere she goes, be it summer picnics on Angel Island, quiet afternoon in Aquatic Park, high speed runs down the waterfront, or rafting up on the lazy fall days on the Petaluma River. -

Contact Charlie Fritz at chazfritz [at] yahoo.com or phone 970 971-9234. October 22nd, 2009 by David W. JohnsonThe Swiftsure is a design from the John Welsford website (http://www.jwboatdesigns.co.nz). Her specifics are as follows: - L.O.A. 16′ 5″
- L.B.P. 14′ 9″
- L.W.L 14′ 1″
- Beam 4′ 7″
- Sail Area 120 sf ft.
She is designed along the lines of an 18th century revenue cutter. Since the plans did not stipulate the running rigging or the finishing out of the interior I made numerous innovations including a fife rail cat heads and belaying pin rails. I made all of the blocks out of oak. The interior is oak strip (8mmX50mm) rubbed with pin tar and varnished. The frames are hard rock maple approximately 21″ on center and the hull is marine plywood. I installed an electric trolling motor directly behind the keel and in front of the rudder. It is powered by two 12V Marine batteries installed under the seats on the port and starboard side. I have included a few pictures but you can view the full series of construction photos on the JWBuilders2 site. Just go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/jwbuilders2/. You may need to join the group to view the photos. Look for the file Swiftsure. I believe it is on the second page. I am asking $6,900 for Valhalla (Swiftsure). My wife thinks I own too many boats so I need to sell Valhalla before I can build another boat. October 18th, 2009 by sethmuirIain Oughtred designed Granny Pram
