Saw this boat in Cleveland harbor but couldn't get out to it for lack of wind.
Is she wood?

Ahoy! 'Been fairly busy riggin', paintin', and such, but..we took her out for a shakedown and it ended up in the Plain Dealer again!..Yup, wood; originally built mahogany over double sawn oak futtocks. Kinda North Sea boat Canadian construction. Refit around 1990 as an interpretation of a colonial ketch, gunboat outfitted. We'll be available to the public here at Whiskey Island Marina until the end of June, then we're doing eight days of educational daysails from the Science Center. Then, of course, Tallships Challenge from the 12-16...Stop on by, we're mostly around, unless we're sailin' ('probly tomorrow,eh?)
