General
Description
The
MeadowLark was ketch-rigged, 33 feet long and instead
of a keel or centerboard, had leeboards
like the Dutch Boier yachts, wing like things that are
alternately dropped and lifted when tacking. The draft
of the boat was 15 inches, a wondrous fact in a 33-foot
sailboat and a statistic which opened a world of cruising
grounds that seldom see a sailboat.
Actual Condition
This classic example of a 33 MeadowLark needs some TLC
to bring her back to her glory. She has recently
been
used and has not been neglected to the point
of no return. This should be on the must see list of
anyone who is looking for a rewarding project that will
surely cause a stir in any harbor sailed.
It is reported by the owner
that the headroom, sitting, as he remembers Herreshoff's
plan, is 4'8". The deck is plywood over white oak
frames with fiberglass cloth covering. The deck is tight.
The boat needs to be caulked (slick seam, not cotton
or oakum). It needs to be sanded and painted, inside
and out, and the interior needs to be cleaned and painted,
as does the engine. The boat is made of the very best
materials, white oak framing, hard yellow pine bottom,
cedar sides with white oak top board for the leeboards.
Sitka spruce masts and new sails with a jib furler.
The interior contains two forward bunks and one large
bunk on the port side and a porta-potti. There is a
compass that is in the boat on the bunk. There is a
2 burner alcohol stove that is not in the boat presently.
The boat is covered. The sails and stove are in storage.
The details of its construction are available to be
seen in "Sensible cruising designs", by L.
Frances Herreshoff.
