Eloise

In Festival Boats 2019

This Whitehall-type long boat was stored in a barn loft in the San Juan Islands for over 60 years. Those decades at rest among old farm equipment and dust has not dimmed her beauty. As a tender, her duty was to serve in the shadow of the 85′ Lawley schooner “Eloise” (ex. Gulmar c. 1913), but today she is in the spotlight – a testament to the enduring appeal of traditional design and craftsmanship.
