Landlocked123 Posted May 31, 2015 #1 Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) 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!
