We found a 1907 25' Fay and Bowen Standard Torpedo launch and restored it for the Minnesota Maritime Museum. STELLA won her class at the International ACBS meet.
From the barn on the Mohawk River in NY....... ..To 2011 ACBS International Boat Show Historic Launch Class Winner Another Fay and Bowen that we restored is the famous AIDA II. She was previously owner by Bill Smith, founding member of the ACBS and the first person to organize and publish data on Fay and Bowen hull history. This hull is the most photographed Fay and Bowens of all time. She was featured in Nautical Quarterly and The Guide To Wooden Power Boats, as well as an Este Lauder national advertising campaign.
...she will be featured by us at the 21st Annual WoodenBoat Show at Mystic Seaport, CT this year, and I have been told by the owners that she is reluctantly available for sale. Click here for the full details. Our 1904 B.B. Crowinshield 27' gaff-rigged sloop ANONA We have yet to match a capable owner with ANONA. Her restoration has been put on the back burner due to our involvement in the Wianno Senior one-design class and getting ready for the class one hundred year anniversary in 2014. Our shop is diligently working to restore two early Wianno Seniors to sail in the anniversary, and we would love to find an enthusiastic owner for ANONA. Her sale price has been dramatically reduced for the right person. She requires a full restoration, but her small size and lightly built structure make her a suitable project for the home builder; or have us do the structural work. She is available to the right party for $8,000.00. In Shop "A"........
A Riva Ariston, a Fay
and Bowen Golden Arrow, and a Fay and Bowen Junior Runabout
