Paul Clark’s homebuilt 16′ row/sail boat in Victoria. The hull without any equipment weighs about 150 pounds. Paul has a leeboard on the starboard side. (With a centerboard he wouldn’t be able to sleep in the boat — which he does). He’s rowed and sailed in local (Vancouver Island) waters and has gone on trips of a week or more. He and Godfrey are talking about sailing across the Strait of San Juan de Fuca in September, Godfrey in his 12′ San Francisco Pelican, to go to the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival (Sept 7-9.)
About Lloyd Kahn

Shelter II (1978),
Home Work (2004),
Builders of the Pacific Coast (2008),
