I really like the lines of that boat. Their is a downeaster with similar lines but at the moment I am unable to find it.
Very compact and seaworthy efficient boat. Why did you go with what looks like a balsa core?
Nice work by the way.

Dang....I had to find this boat for you. Apparently Harvey has a brother called
Tolman.

Ted, hows your progress going? Here's a little more I found out.
Dory boats speeding and landing on beach in Pacific City Oregon - YouTube
From another discussion;
Look up Pacific city dorys in Oregon, pretty cool running those dorys thru the surf and up the beach. Learned boat shop builds a slick dory and I think those glass Harvey’s were built somewhere on Oregon as well.
