Luders L-16
BRIGADOON was built in 1946 and sailed in the Northeast Harbor Fleet as ROMP for many years. She has a hot molded hull with five plys of mahogany laminate which was restored by the Elk Spar and Boat Shop during the late 1990's to early 2000's. Her keel was removed, the hull was inverted and veneers were replaced/regluded and the bottom was fiberglassed to the waterline. The ballast bolts have been replaced. She has a standard Luders 16 wooden mast with North sails in excellent condition. Since arriving in Rhode Island her hull has been further restored and upgraded by East Passage Boatwrights in Bristol, RI and she is now in "excellent" condition. Her hull has been repainted inside and out and recent additions to her inventory include a modified Torqeedo Electric Outboard, a spinnaker launching hatch, modified cockpit seats for storage of the outboard, fenders, lines, etc., and a new boom tent. She is a beautiful boat and is ready to go fast!
