30' Feet 1998 Gentlemens Racer

My choice of construction was to be 4 layers all laminated in a unique manner that no other builder has done. Frames were laminated in a jig to the bullet shape 1 piece, no seams or joints. The first layer of planking was 5/16ths x 3/4 - 2" shiplapped. After fairing it received 2 diagonal layers of 1/16th x 4" Douglas Fur veneer that was laid heavily in liquid glue and stapled in place. A total of 35 gallons of glue was used in the laminating process. After fairing the third layer of veneer the outer layer of Honduras Mahogany canoe shaped concave convey was laid heavy in glue and stapled in a pre determined pattern. This out layer of Mahogany was 5/16 x 13/16 planking placed end to end would total 1.8 miles! The first layer of planking on the bottom was 13/16 x 1 1/2" with two layers of 1/16 Diagonal Fir and 1 layer of Mahogany producing a 1 piece laminated bottom 1 1/4 thick! The sanding was done with a 5' long flexible fairing board. Then finished with Chris Craft Mahogany Filler Stain and now up to 28 hand rubbed coats of varnish. Always kept inside custom floating garage with internal lift. I have done all maintenance myself and have been the only operator. Inspiration for the cockpit shape came from a 1947 Chris Craft that I once owned. The back seat accommodates a 80 gallon L shaped fuel tank. Engine was purchased with a 1.5 to 1 Borg Warner Velvet Drive Trans and out a Cupped Nibral 16x24 Prop. Quick to plane and cruise @ 1700 RPM - Tops 4500 RPM over 40 MPH. Compression check on motor was perfect. New manifolds, risers, hoses and elbows were just recently added. Boat took a year and a half to build, it was launched in June of 1998. A bow thruster and second battery were added in 2012! The double axel trailer was purchased in September of 2023. All serious interested buyers please contact through phone number and I can put in touch with Sam the owner!

14 ft. Feet 1925 Rebuilt Herreshoff

Lana is a Biscayne Bay 14 designed by Nathanael Green Herreshoff in 1925. She is a Suicide class sailboat designed for shoal waters. N.G. Herreshoff was a naval architect, mechanical engineer and yacht designer who produced undefeated America's Cup defenders between 1893 and 1920. His designs are graceful, scientifically engineered and speedy. Those of the 2,000-plus designs by Herreshoff that survive, such as Lana’s, are sought by connoisseurs of classic yachts. Lana lives up to the Herreshoff reputation. She is a delight to sail, well behaved, suprisingly quick and yar, and beautiful! She is great here on the Cheaspeake Bay and tributaries, slipping gracefully between the barrier islands, looking for a secluded beach for a picnic. In 2017, Lana was built in Williamsburg by a master carpenter, the head of marine activity at Jamestown Colony and was number two in command of Pride of Baltimore. After we acquired her 2023, we gave her a new coat of paint and had her name done in gold leaf. Latell Sailmakers in Deltaville washed and went over the sails. We keep her inside in the off season and on a boat lift the rest of the time. Although she has a full cover on the lift, out of prudence we added garboard drains. Being that the only ones available that could be operated from inboard are huge, we hand-crafted them. The stem-head fitting for the forestay was suffering from metal fatigue, so we made a new one of naval brass, 464. It seems she had not been sailed very much, so there were adjustments needed to make sailing more comfortable. We adapted the tiller to hinge up, which is much easier on old folk, and made a custom tiller extension. The jib club was not included when we bought the boat, so we downloaded the original Herreshoff plans from MIT and made one from a nice piece of fir. With a new sheet and Davey & Co lignum vitae bullseye fairleads with bronze eye straps, the self-tacking jib is working beautifully. The main sheet was difficult to handle, especially from the port gunnel due to a bad lead. We added a fairlead block to ease the sheet properly into the cam cleat. That, another block for additional purchase, and a new lighter mainsheet has made the main much more manageable. We try to maintain her elegant provenance but have resorted to the occasional 316 stainless steel and polyester line here and there. Lana was designed to be sculled but the holes for the rowlocks had been cut, abandoned and filled, so we cleaned out the fill and installed new bronze rowlocks on the transom and bought a nice long oar. The tiller extension holds the rudder straight while you scull. She is ready for you to come aboard and enjoy making a lot of carefully built weight move beautifully!

20 ft. Feet 1959 Riva

Cruise in style on this classic 1959 Riva Super Florida, Lolo, hull number 360 of 711 made. Lolo is a beauty, turning heads at every port of call. Riva founder, Carlo Riva aimed to create a “legendary emblem of luxury and nautical refinement, by manufacturing magnificently crafted leisure boats,” such as the Super Florida. Roger Vadim gifted the Riva Super Florida, Nounours to his then wife, Brigitte Bardot in 1959. Other Riva owners included Sean Connery, Richard Burton, Hugh Hefner, Roger Vadim, Anita Ekberg, Jean Paul Belmondo, Ferruccio Lamborghini, and Gianni Agnelli. Get behind Lolo’s helm, and you’ll understand why the rich and famous chose to ride in style on a Riva. Lolo is one of the few Riva Super Florida’s in the United States. Stuart King, from Annapolis, Maryland, found Lolo in 1990, annd restored her in 1990 – 1992, refinished her in 2003 when she was sanded to the wood and varnished, fitted with new upholstery, and had West System applied on the hull from the waterline to the keel. We keep Lolo in a closed garage during the winter months where she undergoes preventative maintenance. For the rest of the year, we keep her on a covered boat lift out of the water and sun after occasional cruises to waterfront dining and waterskiing on the tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay. After cruising, we rinse, and hand dry her. In 2024, we installed a new 12-volt stereo with USB, a new horn, and checked beneath the bow plate and screws on the rub rails and other parts of the hull. In 2023, we re-bedded the prop shaft strut, aligned the engine with new engine mounts, installed a new cutlass bearing as well as a new neutral safety switch, and hand-painted her custom trailer. In 2022, we varnished her again and installed a new bilge pump, raw water pump and battery. In 2021, we restored her wiring to original harness as much as possible. We had a Crate GM 350 engine installed in 2015 which has run approximately 600 hours since then. Lolo is equipped with a fluxgate compass, docking lines, anchor, depth sounder, life vests, and authentic Riva running lights, flagpole, ski pole, instruments, deck boards and cleats. She’s in turn-key condition, ready for you come aboard and have fun water skiing or enjoying the sunset out on the water.
