| I pretty sure that is Marleen and Beno. There Duck is Aluminum and the hull and superstructure were built in Canada by a company called MacAllister or something like that. They finished the boat them selves over several years in Toronta and then going sail into the sunset (around the Cape). They are a German couple and just the best people. We visited them just after they moved the unfinisted boat to Toronto. They had web site convering their build but it is shut down. While visiting Beno I also met the owners of a steel and wooden Duck, pictured in George Bueller's book, then under construction. The wooden Duck eventually burned to the water line, if I recall, from a poorly insulated dry stack. |
