I’m looking for pictures of deck house cruisers, flat tops, you know, the kind made from wood, 70' or less. Can you point me to a web site or one of those pretty coffee table books, anything?

Thanks Doug.
The reason I looking for the pictures is one of the boats I’m working on is a modern hull but I want it to have the class and personality of those old power yachts. It’s hard to do in 28 feet. Most of the really nice ones went over 70’. Mine won’t have a plumb stem so that doesn’t help much. It’s all in the detailing, I’ll get it, but it might take a while.

Thank you, Tad. It was your Memory 38’ that started me thinking about a similar boat that could possibly live on a trailer. This is very near to what I have in mind.
