Post subject: Bolger boat name
Archived from groups: rec>boats>building (more info?)

I'm looking for information on a Bolger houseboat. The thing looks like a
square camper floating on its side, but the front is swept up, big windows
on the top part of the front, and a little cutwater installed below.

I'm looking for the name of the design. I had a couple of links to it, but
somehow nuked the listings.

Thanks,

Frank

That would be "watervan", written up in Messing About in Boats a few years
ago. Reprints are available. I seem to recall seeing photos online, but
Google doesn't turn much up. Try the yahoo Bolger group, there may be
photos there.

That's it! Thanks, The other houseboat
is nice, but the watervan has a really
nuanced appearance about it.
