Miss Rebecca

In Festival Boats 2018

Miss Rebecca is hull #1 of Arch Davis’s Jack Tar design. She’s built of plywood/epoxy using chine log construction. The jigs and fixtures I made to build her have been shared among builders from Washington to New York, and Great Britain to the Philippines. Her plans first appeared in National Fisherman magazine in 1992. I built her as a fishing boat but my wife and I have also cruised her throughout California, Baja, and the Salish Sea. A 10-month total refit was completed in 2017. A stable and seakindley offshore fishing boat she cruises at 16 knots with a 220 mile range.
