Need info about a gaff-rigged cutter

[FranM]

The Pepper was built in 1977 by Salt Marine, Inc. in Ft. Lauderdale, FL and was designed by William E. Hitchcock. She is 18 1/2 feet LOA, 15 feet LOD, and 12 feet LWL. The boat a fiberglass hull but everything else is wood -- mast, gaff, boom, rudder, bow sprit, etc. It has a full, clipper type keel, deadeyes and carries 2 head sails, both are set flying (no permanent forestays). I am trying to restore the Pepper and I would appreciate any information about the boat.

Thanks,
