These sturdy, seaworthy craft ruled the New England fishing industry from 1815 to 1840. They were gradually replaced by the larger, faster Gloucester schooners. Because of their stability and grace, many pinky schooners were built as pleasure boats in the late 1900’s. Model Shipways’ Glad Tidings plans are based on original drawings by Howard I. Chapelle for a typical Maine Pinky, a boat he had built and actually sailed. Launched in 1937, Chapelle’s Glad Tidings was a two-masted schooner with a gaff rigged fore and aft mainsail, and single jib. Our Glad Tidings contains features never before seen on any commercially available kit. We’ve laser cut the bulwark strakes, and our plans show the spiling and placement of the hull planking strips to exact dimension. Single plank-on-bulkhead construction uses laser cut plywood, basswood and cherry components. Expertly cast Britannia metal castings include anchor shanks, smoke stacks, windlass, cabin port-lights and turnbuckDownload sample pages from the instruction manual.
