This boat was built in the early thirties in North Andover, Mass. by Steven Forbes Rockwell. It’s from that point in time when iceboats were evolving from the solid wood backbone to the fuselage style, but had yet to become Skeeters.

Fuselage is 20′ x 3’. Two old guys can carry it. Can easily carry four or five kids.

Cockpit floors are removable and are covered is some early version of rubber over the webbing. This makes it simple to set up the boat on the ice for the season and store the floors inside.

Mast is 20’, boom is wood spiraly wrapped in something, not fiberglass.

Rigging needs work. Terminals are pour sockets but a fresh bar of lead is included.

Plank is 12’ and appears to be sound.

Cotton sail is stored in a period correct barrel. It’s a cat rig; no jib. Again, part of that evolution away from the classic iceboat.

The masthead.

A thick folder documenting the build and other history is included.
