Speaking of Thailand, here's an image of the 102' aluminum sloop, Silver Lining, under construction in Thailand. See my posting of 13 July by clicking here. It is amazing what this owner has accomplished. The boat is to be launched next week.

Back in July we posted an article about the Northstar 500, a racy looking little 1/4 tonner. The design was then developed into a cruising boat, and renamed the Northstar 600. The boat was also known as the Northstar 26 and later, the Hughes 26 once Hughes took over production. The production run began in 1975 and ended in 1977.

Here's the brochure.


And here's the general arrangement plan.
