| I'm guessing this 1/4" steel-hulled Philip Bolger ketch http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/boa/1789603936.html was built out of 'fully developable' sheets of steel, in other words flat pieces. Sort of like Origami Boats? Has a very utilitarian Neo-Post Industrial Pre-Modernist Movement(or whatever 'they' would say) look to it. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

| Looks allright to me - if its easy to build, why not. I look forward to hearing where the desing comes from. |

| Philip Bolger WAS the designer designed 100s of boats. some traditional, and some with a 'no nonsense' aesthetic. |

| No doubt original approach to make full -keeled hull developable! My hat off to hull design, no matter who is the author!
