26 Retro in wood

Wooden boats are now again in demand, both old, restored and new construction. In Scandinavia we have schools where to be a wooden boatbuilder. But there are very few new designs.

I have made a type of boat that looks like a boat from the fifties, but has a modern deep V hull and a daycruiser interior. With epoxi treatment she will be almost as easy to maintain as a GRP-boat, and nothing comes near the feeling of a shining mahogany hull.

This boat is only 26 feet, another I have made is 41 feet and I also have a 60-footer halfway finished in my computer...
