“Fable” was designed with Chapelle in mind. A circle was drawn around 3 guitar players to determine her beam. Center board eliminated for comfort of playing music and living aboard. Many in the marine trades in PT had a hand in her construction and re-construction including Tipton, Acorn, Baird, Chamberlin, Hasse, Toss, Rathbun, and me. The original Spritsail Ketch rig was unwieldy; redesigned by Carl Chamberlin. The fable is sturdy, slow, and yar.
