Notas históricas

Mike Rydqvist McCammon States "Originally sailed on the Great Lakes. What looks like a bite taken out of the keel is the trademark design feature described as the “Brewer Bite”, designed to give the vessel some windward advantages. Cabotcraft Industries set up shop in 1973 in a World War I-era naval building, as part of a Federal partnership to employ and retrain out of work miners. The company went out of business in 1978."
