Hi - does anyone have any diagrams or other drawings these vessels? I am undertaking a restoration project and really could make some use of the original lofting diagrams so I know the dimensions of the cabin, cockpit etc. Thanks

Doubt that any detail drawings exist, or even ever existed. This type of boat was built mostly by eye following a general arrangement drawing. Actual dimensions would be left largely to the shipwrights who would make to fit, and of course owners could make changes in build that are never recorded. So, although boats of the same type may look similar detail measurements and layouts may vary.

Not a one-off: quite a few built in Essex to a standard design dating from 1959: still in production in the late 1960s. Am PMing you what I have, not a lot but the basic specs.
