| CHANTY is
a 56’ wishbone ketch designed by Bruce King and
built by ZMI. Her construction is cold-molded wood with
WEST epoxy resin. The interior features many curved
shapes and raised panels. Despite her traditional appearance,
CHANTY is high tech, with carbon fiber spars, rod rigging,
and hydraulic controls for furling and trimming the
sails. CHANTY draws 4’8” with her centerboard
up, and displaces 48,000 pounds. We launched her in
June, 1994, and she has since graced many magazines,
including Yachting, WoodenBoat, Chesapeake Bay Magazine,
and Sailing.
