The North Wind
Built 1931
Saturday November 27,
2005 -
With the help of several friends, TIYC member Bill Jockett took delivery of the
North Wind. Very similar to a 15-meter, this boat is a bit larger at 32
feet in length and has a main and a jib.
February, 2006 - The
northwind has a new backbone nearly ready for hardware to be installed.
The cockpit is also under construction. The woodwork boasts mahogany and
spruce in contrasting colors.
This page will be update
from time to time as more information on its history, old photos, and
restoration updates are made available. We need any information, photos,
etc. that is available about the history of this boat. Please email:
tiycmail@tiyc.net if you have
any information to share.
