Description

C.C. Hanley (1851 – 1934) was born in Maine, where he apprenticed as a blacksmith, and moved to Cape Cod in 1875, where he built his first catboat. Over the years, he built some very fast catboats for some local racers, with huge booms and very long bowsprits.

For this model, we have created a simple frame set that includes a slot for external ballast, making her stiff and fast, and quite attractive, even without a huge bowsprit.
