I am trying to find what my boat is. It is pitch pine construction and is around 1900. Her name is Irene and judging by the carving, she has been called Irene for a long time. She is gaff rigged.
I need help identifying this boat.

Looks pretty radical and reminds me of a Broads type of boat. Sorry cant be more helpful.

What a pretty thing.
Mind you you are not the owner you know, just a temporary custodian.
She will have the top 'row away' value in most anchoring spots.

Above her water line she looks really like a dragon - but they're not a gaffe rig - what a fantastic project - good luck!

Nah
to much sheer for a Dragon
and the coach roof looks more Mylne like, IMHO

That really looks to me like the boat of the early century. The boat has got an ancient tinge to it.
