Pretty boat. Do you have any details on the boat, like LOA, Beam, etc. Also, is it a centerboard, drop keel, or swing keel? Do you have a better profile photo of the boat.

btw, you really shouldn't post multiple threads on the same subject.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Looks like a Bayfield. (Ted Gozzard). Currently in business today as Gozzard Yachts. The teak trim on the bow and around the cockpit looks like their work. Gozzard is in Goderich,Ontario.

He posted it twice seven days ago. Heinzir just got around to answering the question on this thread tonight. It's still a Mac, though. (g)
