    Thanks terrymiff! That is really helpful, and now I understand the function of one of the lines at the top of the gaff near the jaw. Would you know someone who makes sails? I'm not at all up on sewing or working with fabrics. Norm

    I pried off a cabin roof and found a "builder's plate". The lettering is pressed into a piece of wood and was painted over, but I'm able to make out "madeira" and fragments of other words. I'm wondering if it originated in Spain or Italy and was sold as completed, rather than as a kit.

    Good morning. I just acquired a large pond boat in Connecticut, but have reason to believe it's from New York, and would like to know more about it. I have attached a few pictures. It is a large model with a heavy lead keel. It is plank on frame construction and might be from the 1950's. It measures 55" overall, with 45.5" hull length, and is 15" across the beam. Any thoughts you may have regarding this model would be appreciated.

    Thank you very much for your time. Best regards, Norm
