Dark Harbor 12-1/2

[KPadgett]

I'm interested in building this or similar sized (20') sloop. Does anyone know where I might view some photos of a Dark Harbor 12-1/2. I've only seen the plans at this point and would like to get a good view of a completed one before I commit to the project.

It's a gorgeos boat! I think Art Read built one. You may be able to find contact info on him if you do a search for Art Read on this forum.
I hope you build it - I don't think you'll be dissapointed. I'm thinking about building a Hodgdon 21 Class Sloop for Myself. I don't know how I will fund it, but seeing you start a Dark Harbor might just push me over the edge. Good Luck -Steve

Definitely get a hold of Art, and look for the picture he's posted on My Woodenboat. There are also some great pictures of one that is for sale here in Seattle at http://www.dockstreetyachts.com/. Look for a 20' Gaff rigged sloop listed. (I would have linked directly but the URL was really long).
(BTW, I have no interest in this boat other than the design.)

Good luck, it's truly a beautiful boat.
