Baby Tender CAROLINE

Bob Ward, of Umatilla, Oregon, built this Baby Tender for his first grand niece, Caroline, who was born last September. The tender, named CAROLINE after her skipper, was launched in November. Bob has restored a 1955 Chris-Craft Constellation, and is is currently working on a 1950 Chris-Craft U22, but the tender is the first boat he built from scratch. He used walnut, maple, oak, and three types of mahogany. Bob got the plans from Warren Jordan at Jordan Wood Boats in South Beach, Oregon. Bob notes, “The CAROLINE will sail on the dreams of her skipper and her skipper's future siblings in Bellingham Washington.”
