Grebe

[addon]

Can anyone tell me where I can view pictures/drawings/specifications of Iain Oughtred designs such as Grebe or Ptarmigan?

Iain Oughtred
Complete design catalog, including the Grebe and other fine sailing and rowing boats, $10.00 US.

Donn,

That address is old. The current address is:

Struan Cottage
Bearnisdale
Isle of Skye
IV51 9NS
Scotland

Phone: 44 1 470 532 732

I think the current price is either $16.00 or $18.00 USD postage paid.

If none of the above is correct, Iain advertizes in WATERCRAFT and CLASSIC BOAT magazines. Barnes & Noble stocks Classic Boat.

The closest thing you'll ever find to an Iain Oughtred web page:

Lots of photos of some other beautiful boats at Classic Marine (http://www.classicmarine.co.uk/gallery/open_boats.htm)

No wonder I was confused. That boat is currently listed as "GANNET". Iain renamed a lot of his boats a few years ago. Which means that GREBE is now either---
Shearwater

or Fulmar

They do indeed! I stand corrected. My bad! The fault lies in their search feature-it doesn't return the design catalog along with the other titles.

In fact the search doesn't show all of Iain's plans available from the WoodenBoat Store.
