Greg Redden, the architect who designed that line is/was a reader of this list. You should be able to find some old posts by him, and glean an e-mail address for him. When I've written to him I've found him prompt to respond and very cordial and informative.

If anybody knows those boats, he sure does.

Of course you have to consider that, like any proud papa, he knows HIS baby is the prettiest one
