A smaller version of my 42’ multi-chine Halibut schooner hull. This one is slightly simpler with a bar stem rather than the box stem on the larger hull. The arrangement is traditional with galley up or down, and two sleeping cabins with head forward. The deep sided aft cockpit with full roof is a particularly nice living area with good protection no matter what time of year. The gaff main and standing lug mizzen are simple and low stress, just right for their role as stabilizers and occasional propulsive help.
