    PAR (Rip) mentioned a box keel version of Bolger's Tennessee. Anyone ever see one?

    For my uses a 22.5' x 54" (3/4 scale) box keel Tennessee would check a lot of boxes. Looks, seakeeping, ease-of-build, high speed/power ratio, shallow draft.

    Box keel Sneakeasy is close as well, but I would benefit from 4ft less of length and a few inches of beam.
