Tiger - a sister ship...

It was wonderful to run across notice of another wooden "pinky", fully found. And better yet, accompanied by a video of her in action. The video, narrated by her owner, confirms what we have heard from Revenante's previous owners, and others ( including the historical record), about her safety, seakindliness and ease of handling. A link to this video is provided with permission of its creator, David Bruckner of Puchika Productions. It's just the boost we need to move our boat toward completion. Perhaps one day we will meet and sail alongside her.

You can view the video here.

Hi there, just came across your website, and was wondering how your Schooner "Revenante" project is going. Also wanted to give you an update on the Tiger. My boyfriend and I purchased her last year, and brought her down from Seattle to San Francisco. We are in the process of restoring her to her historically accurate condition, and we sail on her the Bay in between projects. You can keep up with her here: http://sites.google.com/site/schoonertiger/
Cheers, and good luck with your boat!
