Hi,

 

I just finished a few dories for a Glouchester Fishi

ng Schooner. My plans don't show how they were carried on deck. I just spent 40 minutes paging through 600+ pages of Chapelle's "The American Fishing Schnooners" and I didn't see even a reference to dories much less how they were stowed on deck! I ran a bunch of searches on MSW without any luck.

 

Does anyone have a picture, drawing, or idea of how the boat chocks or cradles would look? The only real information I've been able to uncover is that the chock/cradle would not be permanently fixed to the deck.

 

All help truly appreciated!

 

Best,

John

Check out the scratch build of the Annie M. Parker by Canoe21 (Lawrence) - there may be some ideas there.
