wheels 543 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 This is a Ferro that someone would like to know what it is. Does anyone recognise the design? I thought maybe Herreshoff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
erice 732 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 there are some ferro h28s weren't there a few bigger designs too? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 Yes there were erice. The larger ones were slightly more common. The topside reminds me of one, not sure if it would be a mobjack, but it reminds me of one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GregW 28 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Kind of reminds me of a Samson or Roberts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Myjane 40 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Samson 38 is it concrete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harrytom 653 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 on a side note,on trade me there is a concrete yacht that claims to be a mummery,never knew mummery did concrete? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 never knew mummery did concrete? i have no clue and would doubt anyway, that Mummery did any themselves. But that is not to say anyone tried themselves. The issue with building something outside of the actual known designs is that you then end up with an orphan. It may sail really well, but I do know some were really bad ones as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wild violet 38 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Mummery did a few ferro boats some nice ones too Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know of a concrete Lidgard but lidgard wouldn't acknowledge it,sails well in 15+ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
