There was an article in "Wooden Boat" magazine about Hickman Sea Sleds that ran a couple of years ago. If anyone has a copy of that it might be a source of photographs.
I wrote (e-mail) to several people a while back soliciting photographs but replies were nil.

see http://ivb-boats.netfirms.com/HistoryofIVB2.html for many photos of sea sleds. Don Hayward in New Zealand has collected and posted a fine site dedicated to the sea sled, and his rendition, the inverted vee boat. The wooden boat article is reproduced ther with permission of its author. Other sea sled articles are referenced, most by Dave Gerr, N.A. Watch eBay for sea sled ads coming up for auction.
