8.28- Princess Sharpie 22' on Smith's Creek



A 22' Princess Sharpie cat-ketch sails up Smith's Creek as dusk approaches.

This boat was designed by naval architect Graham Byrnes, whose B&B Yacht Designs is located in nearby Vandemere, NC, on the Bay River.

Check out B&B's Princess Sharpie 22 page, for more info about this sweet vessel, including photos of the construction process & interior. You can order the plans for this boat at the B&B site for about $200.

B&B dinghies and small sailboats are understandably popular here in eastern NC, and most are designed specifically for eastern NC's inland and coastal waters.
