62 foot double ended daysailor under construction at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding in Port Hadlock, Washington. Known as the “Sliver Project” she is expected to be sailing by Summer 2013. This design was inspired by a number of famous classic vessels including vessels designed by L. Francis Herreshoff, Bruce King and Bill Garden. Perry was selected to create the design due to his past very successful double ended designs and the recent success of a number of his designs on the race course.
