Identify this 'Ketchikan' Boat ?

[markpierce]

Can anyone identify the designer/maker/model of this blue-hulled boat seen in Ketchikan on July 4, 2010?

Sure looks like a beautiful boat! Actually, every boat in that image looks very nice.

The boat no.... but I can identify that ain't Ketchikan...its not raining....

Don't feel disappointed. It did rain a bit that day (July 4, 2010).

The blue boat is a custom William Garden design. You can see the plans for it in the big coffee-table book about William Garden and his designs.

That's a surprise. Didn't know Garden did powerboat designs. The boat inspired me to take the plunge and purchase a non-dieselduck, Buehler-designed recreational trawler.

Gosh!! Yes. Some of his big power yachts make these modern things look like Mattel designs by comparison.

It looks very much like an early edition Nordhaven 35. See Nordhavn - Power That Is Oceans Apart .

FWIW...
