All small craft working in January get my attention, but
this one attracted me even more because of its lines. Is this a one-off or can someone identify the manufacturer? An indicator of my severe case of cabin fever this year is that I’ve been looking at lots of small boat ads. I’d really be happy to find a Grover 26 or 28. . . if anyone knows of one that’s available.
Crewboats, like the one with the cyclopean light, make their way among lots of other traffic in places like the KVK.
As you know, foreshortening compresses space in a frame . . . .
As close as this looks, it’s entirely safe.
Patricia is a small boat in this pond though
NYS Naval Militia Moose 440 patrols year around.
All photos, WVD, who’s serious about that Grover built search.

Thx, John– Al Grover certainly put his boat through baptism on that Atlantic crossing. That boat is on display on the Nautical Mile in Freeport.
