Before the age of the carbon-fiber racers and the need to compete for the America's Cup, the prevailing dream was a mahogany built sailing cruiser. Elegant yet sturdy, able to deal with all kinds of weather. A classic cockpit, bronze portholes and fittings and a sensible rig. The Friendship is one of the most elegant and nostalgic wood cruisers from the 1930s. L. 47.24 in. x W. 9.84 in. x H. 45.67 in.

Whalers had no equal in handling an open boat at sea. At a time when whales were still plentiful as well as fair game, they were hunted in relatively small open rowboats. They approached a whale closely so as not to miss with a toothpick-like harpoon. At least when comparing it with the bulk of a seventy foot long leviathan sperm whale. And the Kings of the Sea didn't take kindly to being hunted, giving rise to the shanty of the harpooner: A Dead Whale or a Stove Boat. The whaleboat rode the waves like an albatross. For lightness, grace and speed it simply had no peer. The buckets held up to a mile of line. The harpooner would stand on the stern holding his harpoon. A successful throw might mean a long chase, the whale taking the boat in tow. The harpoon line would be belayed on a single pollard on the deck. The double ends made it easy to move in two directions, a slap of the tail of an angry whale had better be avoided.... Our hand built whaleboat is built lap strake planks-on-frame. Whaling tools in amazing detail. Measures 36.25" x 8" x 40.5"
