Classic wood boats, Stauter Built, fishing boat
A well kept classic Stauter Built with a matching very old outboard engine here. She and her wood boat hull have stood the test of time. While many Stauter Built are open skiffs for fishing, decks and center consoles are also built. Fiberglass trees your thing? Here is a reason not to use them in boats.
Chris Brown / seabuddy have owned both boat types of boat construction and enjoy boating in a boat that is suited to what I want to do on the water.

Chopper Gun Chopped Strand Mat, fiberglass boat building / boat restoration
Chopper Gun fiberglass where random short hairs of glass are chopped from a string in a gun that looks like a paint gun and then forced into the air towards a boat mold and then are mixed while still in the air with resin that looks like honey adds bulk to boat construction but is not as strong as other types of fiberglass construction lay ups.

Boat Lust, Riva Aquarama, classic wood boat
A solid block of boat and yacht art in wood.
It is Lust on the water in a wooden boat.
The Riva Aquarama and Super Aquarama is the boat of Brigitte Bardot. Or Ted Kennedy (and friend) photographed with his swim suit down around his ankles before he got past middle age. Peter Sellers owned one. Leslie Caron has been associated with the yacht. Prince Rainer of Monaco and his family owned several. The Shah of Iran had his Riva air freighted to his local waters from the factory in the Lake country of Northern Italy.. The Riva Aquarama and Riva Super Aquamara captured the LUST of boaters and landlubbers alike.

31’ Regal Boats Window Express cabin cruiser
She is named after her hull length, not her LOA. Beam is 9’ 11”.Sleeps six and has a queen sized 56” by 84” berth in the master stateroom for the Admiral.
What is a window express? Regal puts more and bigger windows in the main cabin so the boating views and light stream inside. Oversize forward deck windows (Regal boat exclusive) add even more to the airy and bright cabin environment.

AQUARIVA 2011 Riva boat / Riva yacht
…Marc Newson has partnered with Riva and their official designers, Officina Italiana Design, to reinterpret the ‘Aquariva’ (Super Aquarama) speedboat.
Newson’s design for the Aquariva vessel is unique in its conception, as well as the materials chosen. A wood-like, textile-based laminate (phenolic composite) was used for the deck area and instrument panel. This material was developed in the first half of the 20th century, and was a precursor to fibreglass. While having an ostensibly organic feel and aesthetic, it is significantly more durable than wood. To give the exterior a more high tech look, Newson utilized anodized aluminium, a material not generally associated with boats; this lightweight material is used in lieu of stainless steel and chrome brass, yet remains contextual among Riva’s glamour and classical design.
