Goeller / Eric Dow Rowing / Sailing Yacht Tender

Goeller / Eric Dow Rowing / Sailing Yacht Tender

L. Francis Herreshoff felt that (the designer) Frederick Goeller was one of the best draftsmen that he knew, and Mr. Goeller proved his design ability when he came up with this boat that will roww, sail and handle an outboard motor, plus be strong, beautiful and practical at the same time!
One could not imagine a better yacht tender of this size. Ruggedly constructed of cedar and oak, she has excellent carrying capacity and good stability. She can carry three to four persons inj relative comfort, more in calm conditions. Her handsome sailing rig will stow inside the boat, and her bouyancy aft makes it possible to tend a reasonable outboard without fear.
