During the prohibition era of the 1920s successful downeast
rumrunners used boats built by, among others, the legendary Will Frost.
Their wit, and the characteristics of their vessels, allowed them to
elude the government’s revenue cutters.
Rumery's 38 pays homage to these elegant, fast & seaworthy designs
of Will Frost. The sensuous curves of the torpedo stern,
and the sculptural smoothness below the waterline, makes the Rumery’s
38 an extremely efficient hull form, very easy to push through the water.
The hull slices through the water: “As you give it throttle, it goes
faster and faster, but there’s no wake…it runs cleanly and it
never pounds.”
* *Bob Stephens (Brooklin Boat Yard) quoted in WOODENBOAT
issue #170 Jan/Feb 2003.
This boat handles well in all sea conditions, stable at
rest and at speed, it always feels safe and comfortable. The nearly flat run
under the torpedo stern smoothes out the water as it exits from under the
hull leaving almost no wake at any speed.
It is extremely fuel efficient, and at the same time very quiet. Rumery’s takes extra effort to provide
a comfortable environment for the helmsman and your passengers.
