|
|
I saw this boat in the marina at Gibsons, BC. It appears to be a full-displacement, narrow-beam derived from the lobster boats of the east coast. It has a stabilizing sail. Looks very salty and capable. Any and all info identifying and providing info on this boat would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Warren

Sorry, did not see anything about the boat there, either!
I Googled "Camosack" and gather that it was the earlier name for Victoria, BC. But I don't think that is the type of boat, just the name.

June Cameron owned the boat "Camosack". The page is in .pdf format. Use the Adobe .pdf search tool in the article.
Quote: | "At the prime age of 65, she sold her
beloved Saffron, and bought a small
displacement cruiser, the Camosack, and
moved onboard with her Welsh Terrier,
Susie." |
Heck, the vessel in your picture may, in fact, be the same vessel owned by June Cameron - resurrected with a new name of the same origin but now Camosack II. |

That same link I sent you earlier (which I had orginally fat-fingered)...well, I dug deeper in that site and searched on Camosack II and found June Cameron and Mike Dusenbury with Camosack II in the background.

Actually, that "is" June Cameron's vessel (if she still owns the vessel). |

Warren,
That boat is a Maple Bay 27 owned by Bill Kinsey from Vancouver BC. It's made by Maple Bay Boats in BC. Here's a link to some photos of one (including a spec sheet). I suspect the company is no longer making boats as I had a hard time finding a web presence and one link I found to a web site was redirected to an advertising garbage site. _________________ Roger on Meant to be |

I agree, it is a Maple Bay. The first one I remember seeing was about a 24 footer. I too have tried to find a web site for the company during the last few years without any luck. I saw one in Kingston last year and it peaked my interest again. Beautiful wooden boat.

It is definitely a Maple Bay. It is an earlier version and they are no longer made. Here's alink to one for sale on Yacht World. The price has dropped hugely since it first was placed for sale last year.

Hi Doryman Warren,
I thought, too, that your mystery boat looked a lot like a Maple Bay. They moved to Seattle at least several years ago. I had their URL that led there, but it seems gone now--turned over to that garbage site that someone mentioned. The site even listed a few used boats. Maple Bay introduced a new model several years ago, about 27 feet (I think) as a double-ender (a design always dear to my heart.) I kept a page torn from Pacific Yachting BC with a photo and short review. Can't find it anymore. Lovely boat!!

Oh Yah
Maple Bay 27. That is one nice boat. Last year we spotted four of them on our vacation. One is moored in Bellingham. I talked to one owner, he had added some weight to the keel and some other mods. He said it is a 6 mph. boat. If I could settle for 6mph all the time, I would love to have one. But I don't think it would be trailerable. _________________ Terry, Ann & Chloe
