Tempest, my new boat
Here's a couple of pictures of the Sailboat I now partially own, sort of. It's long complicated but it's a great deal, anyone want to go sailing?
She is a 1968 Glassline boat that was originally designed by Bell Lapworth. Most of these hulls were build by Shock up until 1968 then Glassline bought the mold and made them for a few more years. She has a very low deckline and Pretty Lines although this particular shape does shorten the water line to only about 18'.
The rudder never leaves the water even on a 45' heel a benefit of it being fixed to the keel and she has a very low COG.
LOA 25.9'
Beam 7'2"
Draft 4'
Mast Height 37'
I'm looking forward to running her around and especially getting out this summer as she will be a very wet boat and should make her very fun.
The B&W is a picture of her hauled out in the 70's and shows the hull lines nicely. The other picture is a shot of her in her slip a few weeks ago.
