Dream Job

What would you do if you had no need to make a living?.... If money was not a factor?
~
I'm pretty sure that I would build boats... take the cedar strip built method to a mass production status and make them affordable. Powered by sail and oar, they would be economical to own and use, and healthy to be around.
~
The mass produced stuff that you see today in plastic and fiberglass is so ugly, that people use them only to get to larger boats, which are becoming prohibitive in price.
~
Wouldn't it be neat if there were clubs and classes of these beautiful boats? And that families had multiple boats to sail and compete with each other? They could be trailered to all kinds of ocean harbors and inland lakes for fishing, racing, picnicing, and just chilling on them.
~
Keep expenses low and fun high. Great rowing exercise and sailing skill using free sources of energy - wind and muscle power.
~
My Nanepashemet line of boats will include...
  • Herreshoff Columbia 12 1/2' Tender
  • Matinicus 14' Peapod
  • Nipmuc 17' Canoe
  • Alpha 14' Dory
  • Haven 16' Day Sailer
All except the Nipmuc will be equiped for sail.

The boats will be available in a turnkey package with oars, sails, fishing options, life preservers, battery powered GPS, and trailers.

Email me for an advance order. I accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express.
