Im still day dreaming of Leaky Teaky ketches.

the most beautiful ships in the world werethe clipper ships--flying cloud and her sisters---awesome!! next come the vagabonds and other garden design clippers--the norwegian sailing rescue ship reminds a lot of colin archers other hull design, westsail 32--but i prefer the graceful lines of the clippers and formosa/vagabond/ct/hardin, hudson-force 50, and the similar designs...very graceful and almost as elegant as gaff rigged schooners-----

and TICONDEROGA!!!!!!!!

Sorry, no electronic photos but the most beatiful lines I have ever seen were a 30 foot Nova Scotia fishing schooner my grandfather owned. Think small 'Bluenose"....

I'm also partial to these.....

It's hard to say. While I'm in love with my own boat, as every owner should be, I also have a wandering eye. I do favor classic lines over euro-styled plastic, although I have learned to appreciate the asthetics of the latter in recent years.

In the possibly affordable-in-my-lifetime category, I think the new Valiant 42s are wonderful inside and out. They have a classic beauty without being overstated.
