Gig Habor Boat Works - 15' Lobster Boat / Composite Hull With KEVLAR

2010 Gig Habor Boat Works (GHBW) / 15' Lobster Boat - Kevlar Composite HullAHOY!During the 1930s a regulation was passed in Maine stating that lobster pots in certain bays could only be harvested from rowing or sailing boats, but that outboard motors could be used to cross rough water to get to the bays. This regulation led to the development of a boat that would attain planing speed under outboard power, but still retain its abilities as a rowing and sailing work boat. The aggressive dory bow slices through chop and the flat bottom lifts the boat onto a plane when powered by an outboard motor. When the weight of the motor is removed from the transom, the rounded shape slips easily through the water. The modern boater will find this to be a versatile, roomy craft to row single or double, as a family daysailer, or fast workboat.The 15' Lobster Boat is a midsized family sailboat, which is forgiving, but a powerful sailboat. The flat dory-style bottom allows it to be pulled up on the beach to step ashore with dry feet, and she can be launched with knee boots. The covered bow has room for a picnic basket to sit out of the weather. You can also tuck the oars up out of the way while sailing or motoring.The 15' Lobster Boat is an excellent fishing boat, as a small motor will get you out to that hot spot fast, yet she rows easily for a slow troll. The wide, flat bottom makes casting a fly or netting that trophy fish easy. There is plenty of room for you, your buddy, the cooler for the fish, a cooler for lunch, your fishing gear, and a couple of crab or lobster pots.You will be hard pressed to find a more versatile and fun boat that planes with a small motor yet rows and sails so nicely._______________________Original equipment options and upgrades purchased, which are:Kevlar Composite Hull, Roller Furling Genoa, Main Sail, Laminated Wood Sheer, Two Strakes of Blue Gelcoat, White Detail Stripe, Stainless Steel Keel Strip, Built-In Hand Bilge Pump, 9' GHBW Spoon Oars, Custom Canvas Boat Cover, Carnai TFS 16-1000 Custom Fit Galvanized Trailer with Hand Crank Tongue Wheel (2" Ball), 12 Volt 55# Thrust Rudder Mounted Electric Motor, Hatch Ports-Dry Storage and Bilge Plug.
