Joshua launched 1980 in SF Bay, with maiden sail in 1982. Owner Harpster helped build the hull & deck, completing the rigging, houses, and handwork on sails over the next 2 years. Drawings and measurements for the build were taken from a book about Slocum’s Spray and from another Spray replica in San Francisco in 1079.
