Nice! I hadn't seen the Tofinou or Tadorne before, leilani, all 3 models look like great boats. The Tofinou daysailer really takes me back - the first boat I spent a lot of time on was a Rhodes 19 on Lake Ponchatrain and Galveston Bay.
I like the elec drive on the 9.5, that's getting more popular all the time. The Hinkley 42' 'daysailer' has a similar contraption.

Aargh. I wish ya hadn't mentioned the DS 42. I love all of those new old-fashioned ones (the Alerion Express is seriously handsome!) Even the J/100, tho' über-spartan below, is stunning - her lines above water are as graceful as anything Matisse ever put to paper.Out of my league, sigh, both in $$$ and crew requirements.

Any Gilligan's Island discussion invariably brings up the question: Ginger or Mary Ann? Why is this always a either/or question?

I got it on with Tina Louise in that thing, way back in May 1967. I KNEW me and Dawn Wells weren't alone on the boat that night!

The boat above is a Hacker Craft and models like this are still in production. As you can see, the tumble-home hull is not a dead giveaway---these boats are not Chris Crafts.
