CONSTRUCTION           Cold-molded marine plywood covered with epoxy-impregnated Xynole-polyester or   Dynel cloth. Decks, Houses and coachroofs of ply construction incorporating sawn   beams.

DESIGN                        By Reuel B. Parker, after Thomas Clapham, based on the 1936 Howard Chapelle tracings, of which I have a copy courtesy of Gordon Hurley.
