Caledonia Yawl 19′ 10″ long with a 6’4″ beam designed by Iain Oughtred. After sailing in his uncle’s homebuilt trimaran, Daren Lindley had a life long dream to build a boat. 50 years later, Daren and his son in law, Nick Luchterhand bought the plans and started bulding. After planking the hull we could not imagine painting her. Iain Oughtred recommeded a “Boat Sauce” of boiled linseed oil and Stockholm pine tar to finish her Philippine-mahogany planking, iroko rails and black walnut furniture. She is a capacious sailer easily carrying 10 people. Daren and Nick have camp cruised from Saint John’s in Portland to Astoria, Oregon on the Columbia and also taken multi-day cruises in Puget Sound. She took six month’s to build, launching on June 15th, 2017.
