Birth of the Solution Boat

The fiberglass top being attached to a new plank on frame wood lobster boat at Richard Stanley Custom Boats in Bass Harbor, Maine, in early March, 2017. Stanley designed and built the wood hull and designed a custom fiberglass top which will protect the wood hull from the elements. The fiberglass top will be finished with details that will visually blend the two building techniques. A life-long wooden boat builder, Stanley said this design combines the best of both the wooden and the fiberglass boat.
