Specifications

 

Builder: John Rynne

Model: San Juan Sharpie, based on a Reuel Parker Design San Juan Islands Sharpie 36

Type: gaff rigged schooner

Year built: 2005. 

Boat name: S.S. Grace. 

Length: 47' overall, 37' on deck. 

Beam: 11’

Draft: 4' with center board down, 2' with center board up. 

Freeboard: approximately 2' at mid-ship.

Registration: Documented.

Beautiful lines with exquisite detail. Great camping cruiser. Flat bottom and centerboard are conducive to landing on sandy beaches in Florida or gunkholing in the inter-coastal waters of the Pacific Northwest. Not suitable for blue-water, open ocean.

 

Two cabins - sleeps 3. Two porta-potties. 

No water hooked up but there is a foot pump that could be installed and hooked up to a geri-can of water. 

Spot for a camp stove with connection to a 5 gallon gas bottle. 

Installed a new Garmin fish-finder/chart plotter in 2016.

2 anchors - fluke and a 30 lb traditional anchor.  Plenty of rhode with at least 50' of chain. Manual  windlass.

New foresail in 2017 by Hasse Sail Loft in Port Townsend. 

Jib will need replacement at some point but had a major repair done. Main will need replacement at some point as well.

Power: (2) 9.9hp Yamaha outboards with extended thrust.  The starboard outboard is a 2016 model, port outboard is a 2017 model. Have the part to replace the hydraulic lift in the starboard outboard, just needs to be installed.

(2) 12 Volt deep cell batteries purchased May 2017.

(2) 10 gallon gas tanks in the port and starboard lazarettes.

New foremast in 2010 (Sea Marine, Port Townsend, bird mouth construction), new main mast in 2012 (Haven Boatworks, Port Townsend, laminated spruce), new bowsprit in 2016 (laminated fir). All masts and spars are spruce. 

 

Comes with 8 bronze port lights ready for installation. Began replacing them in 2017 but didn't get very far.  Some of the old port lights were leaking because the depth of the port lights were less than the thickness of the cabin wall. The new bronze port lights won't have that issue. 6 are operable and come with screens, 2 are fixed. Recently (August 2020) discovered some rot under the port forward port light in the main cabin; this is currently the only rot that I am aware of.  Boat will come with plywood for making plugs and mahogony veneer plywood for making interior port light frames.

 

2019 minor repair with "git rot" to the end of the main boom (only impacts the last 1' of the boom). 

 

Have annotated blue-prints used to build the boat. Main cabin modified from original design to increase headroom.  Also have newspaper articles and photos of when my father built the boat  and sailed it up the ICW from Florida to Maine.
