\nThis was our favorite boat by far. Harry Bryan<\/a> designs and builds boats, mostly off the grid, in New Brunswick, Canada. Very simple with a wood stove and comfortable seats and berths from which to watch the world drift by. A small powered skiff or punt would serve as a tow boat as there’s no engine installed.<\/p>\n

\nWhen I asked Harry to pose for a pic he said “you want mustard and relish on that?” His Shantyboat would make a great floating hot dog stand.<\/p>\n

\nThe John Gardner Small Craft Weekend coincided with the WoodenBoat Show so there were more traditional small boats than usual. These boats are all Sjogin’s <\/em>cousins. <\/p>\n

\nNicely modeled pram from John Brooks. She would look good towing behind Sjogin<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\nAmorita<\/a>, the NY30 that was run down and sunk by Sumurun<\/a>, a 94′ Fife ketch two years ago. She’s been fully restored by McClave, Philbrick & Giblin in Mystic. A charmed boat for sure and a great story.<\/p>\n
