Does anybody have any information that would help me identify this boat. 18' at waterline 7' beam. Carvel planked 1" TEAK, oak frames. It was built on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, spent many years as a decoration in front of a nautical gift shop in Delaware, so I was told. I purchased it in North Carolina where it hung from the rafters of a barn. Very well constructed and heavily built. It appeared to have been used as a workboat prior to being moved to North Carolina as it was equipped with a small crane and a very heavy rail since removed. Thanks Thom

+1 ^^

Looks an awful lot like many of the DIY boats out there. Sounds like
it's pretty well constructed. How's it sail?
