We are still going Friday.

They started out with a classic 44' and 48' sailboat, then got into trawlers. Now they are building the 44 and 48 again and added a classic 20' and 24' runabout. The design is a 1950's.

They have a web site wwww.cherubiniyachts.com

Very impressive on the website. I will have to check them out tomorrow.
They look very expensive; I am prepared for sticker shock!

I can get you a deal, $120,000 for the 24'.

Nick, what no BW discount! (ha).

There were several other builders of antique wooden boats. Hinckley was another on display. The builder told me they got ideas from various Chris Crafts.

You might be interested visiting The Mariner Museum in Newport News, VA. They have an extensive archive and specimens from the factory which used to be nearby.

I will try posting some photos from the show on Photobook later.
