    Cool boat, be even better if they added, say, another 15-20 feet.
    edit..
    I see they make a 74, but without sail assist.

    Larger Diesel Duck-type vessel

    Actually, if you can get a hold of Buehler's book, The Troller Yacht Book, he has a beautiful 81 footer. The "Ellemaid" design is 81' LOA, 76' 5" LWL, has a beam of only 14' 1" and draws 6' 6". She displaces 100,924 pounds and, with that narrow beam, only requires about a 100 to 150 hp engine. She carries two masts schooner-style for which I am sure George B. would be happy to draw a sail plan.

    Oops, found the plans on his site, too! http://georgebuehler.com/ellemaid.html

    More about the DD 38+2

    By chance, the June 2009 Passagemaker Magazine just arrived in my mailbox today. They feature the Diesel Duck 38+2 built by Seahorse Marine in a nine page spread.

    Those Ducks seem well suited for our waters.

    Better still

    Those are great!

    Only thing better would be a crew of actual cats that spend their shifts suspended in harnesses over the docklines to really give the rats a scare. But I'm sure the ASPCA and PETA people would have something bad to say. Then again would the furor be over employing the cats or being mean to the rats? ;)

    I'm all for it, actually, I have a recruit for you. All he does is eat and sleep, but with the right training he could be whipped back to shape.

    If your cat is anything like the 3 cats we are slaves to, with a little bit of the right training I suspect it would be YOU who would be whipped back to shape. :D

    I've stopped trying to understand them, we just feed it and stay out of its way.

    Wow, that's a neat one.
    Is that the old Canadian ensign up front?
