Wooden Boats for In October 1999 Ralph Stanley, builder and rebuilder of many of our Work & Pleasure Friendship sloops, was awarded a National Heritage Fellowship by the National Southwest Harbor, Maine Endowment for the Arts in recognition of his contribution to the art of wooden 04679 boatbuilding. The following are excerpts from the NEA's profile of Ralph: (207) 244-3795 The traditional craft of building boats involves the shaping of wood in a marriage of form and function to create a vessel intended to occupy a space where wind and water intersect. . . Ralph W. Stanley has built and/or restored countless wooden boats, ranging from lobstering vessels to racing sloops and pleasure yachts over the course of FlNCH&ROSE his career. Born in Bar Harbor, on Maine's Mt. Desert Island, he descended HISTORIC PRESERVATION CONSULTANTS from a long line of mariners. His paternal great-grandfather was the owner and master of fishing schooners and his maternal great-grandfather was the captain Services to museums, architects, and building owners of a three-masted schooner. He grew up in Southwest Harbor and as a child for the conservation, repair, and restoration he made toy boats out of wood and drew boats that he saw in the harbor. He of historic properties often went along when his lobsterman father hauled his traps. Ralph learned CALL 978-922«4950 FAX 978-922-9732 about boatbuilding by watching local boatbuilders. He started his first boat, a 50 FRONT STREET, BEVERLY, MA 01915-5035 28-foot lobster boat, in 1951. This launched a career that has moved from the building of working vessels to the crafting of racing and pleasure boats, but one that has maintained as one constant a meticulous attention to fine work- manship, as well as to traditional process and design. At the heart of Ralph Stanley's commitment to tradition is his dedication to the wooden boat. With the advent of fiberglass, many of the makers of work- ing lobster boats switched to this synthetic material because it made the boats cheaper and easier to maintain. For Ralph Stanley the choice to remain with cedar, oak and pine was made for both aesthetic and practical reasons - he wanted to maintain the centuries-old skills involved in working with wood but he also realized that building fiberglass boats from pre-manufactured molds limits the maker's creative opportunities for improvement. He says: "Building wooden boats is like climbing a still-growing tree where you never get to the top. I wouldn't want to be stuck at some point. I keep finding new ways of doing thing and new things to do. You can always improve". . .Working in wood allows Stanley to combine a deep-seated respect for heritage with a H.A. BURNHAM dogged urge to make things better and to make better things . . . BOAT BUILDING & DESIGN One commentator has noted that "every artist compares his/her work with that of contemporaries; Ralph Stanley compares his work with that of his pred- TEADITIONAL WOODEN VESSELS FOR COMMERCIAL PASSENGER AND PLEASURE USE ecessors over two centuries.".. .As Ralph himself says: "building a boat is like SLOOP BOAT CHARTERS • SAIL MAKING painting a painting.

Sailing aboard Surprise as a teenager with Bob Phaneuf I learned the pleasure of working with canvas sails. They are soft, silent, and easy to manage. Comparing CRONIN CABINETS CRONIN MARINE their natural feel and sound to modern Dacron is like comparing a wooden boat to Custom Kitchen Cabinets Custom Boat Building a plastic one.

So last year, when I added sailmaking to the list of my father's hob- TEL: FAX (508) 248-7026 bies, I turned to a new material. MAILING: Oceanus was developed by North Sails in conjunction with an East Boothbay sail- 164 Sturbridge Road, Charlton, MA 01507 maker, Nat Wilson. It is made with Dacron fibers but simulates canvas and was highly recommended by Bob Douglass and Sara Beck. I have made three sets of sails using Oceanus: one for the historic Chebacco boat Lewis H. Story, which I designed and built for the Essex Shipbuilding Museum; one for the Friendship sloop Kim which I built in 1992; and one for Chrissy. I cut the sails in the traditional manner and they have brought com- pliments from everyone who has seen them. The color and texture of the cloth is wonderful and my experience with Oceanus has been as pleasurable on the water as it has been in the loft. Although, on a good day nothing compares with the softness of pure cotton, in rain or wet going I prefer Oceanus as it doesn't absorb water, is silent, soft, and falls into the lazyjacks or on to the bowsprit without fuss. As for its per- formance, I am sure there are reasons why America's Cup defenders don't use SURVEYORS OF CLASSIC it, but Friendship sloops just aren't that type. On traditional craft, having your sails properly designed and set is far more important than what they are made WOOD & FIBERGLASS BOATS of. Anyone with a traditional boat who is worried about the performance of Capt. Paul C. Haley & Capt. G.W. "Giff" Full his sail material would do better to buy a new boat than a new set of sails. Nat Wilson tells me that Oceanus has long extruded Dacron fibers running 46 Cedar St. • Marblehead, MA 01945 one way. Woven across these are shorter soft fibers spun into yarns. Oceanus 781-631-4902 • FAX: 781-631-8450 is quite stable and stretches very little in the direction of the long fibers.
