| #5533--BUILDING CHUM
: A 12' Lapstrake Sailboat Twelve feet of sailing boat—and how she can sail! If you’re looking for a small boat to bang about in, something that will scoot along under the slightest breeze, a craft that will give you sailing, with all the flavor of keen sport together with a fair element of safety—then, build “Chum.” “Chum” is of lap strake construction instead of batten seam, that is, each plank is lapped over the one below it at the seam instead of butting together backed with a batten as described in ‘Roamer,’’ “Flash,” “Crack” and some other boats in this list. A real classic "looker." HOME PAGE |
