A BOUT Thank You! F LICKA F RIENDS

Flicka Friends is a newsletter that is written specifically for the people who own, crew aboard, or are interested in the Flicka, a twenty foot sailing vessel designed by Bruce P. Bingham.

Based on the Newport Boats of Block Island Sound, this little ship has been built from various materials from the 1970’s until 2002. This includes Flickas constructed from plans obtained directly from Bruce’s California office. About 400 sets of plans were sold. According to Bruce Bingham, many Flickas can be found in New Zealand, Australia, and Sweden.

A number of hulls were built by Nor’Star and some were completed by Westerly Marine. The manufacturer of the bulk of the class is Pacific Seacraft who built 434 hulls in California.

Flicka Friends is published on a quarterly basis: with issues being posted to the Internet in March, June, September and December. Articles and photo- graphs are welcome and encouraged.

You can download the current issue as well as the back issues of Flicka Friends from the Flicka Home Page:

! www.flicka20.com

Flicka Friends is always in need of articles and photographs for publication. Please consider sending something to me for the next issue of the newsletter.
