As a new owner of this fine “little ship”, it is a real pleasure to have Puffin a part of the wooden boat show once again. Bill Garden designed this cutter to sail the seas and Puffin has lived up to his vision. Puffin has an active pedigree of sailing voyages as she has sailed to the Society Islands on two separate times. She also has sailed along the Pacific Coast and up to Alaska three times. Many miles have flowed beneath her keel. Puffin has been a part of this show over the past few years, and has recently undergone a total refit of her rigging with Brion Toss Yacht Riggers, as well as interior modifications by Robert D’Arcy. It would be a pleasure to be part of Puffin’s participation in the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Show.
