Raincoast Spirit was launched in 1992, her hull came out of the Philbrook's "Seamaster" mold, which had previously been used to build a series of commercial boats. Later Roy Parkinson (Park Isle Marine) would use that mold to build the 57' Fine Romance. The trollers Seaborn I and Royal Spirit also came out of that mold, as well as Hi-Dad, which appeared in Free-Willy 2.
 
Arctic Charm.
Interesting boat, the upper structure almost looks home built.

Yeah, it is interesting. Looks like a watch cabin up top (I want one) and that one upper deck chair looks a little set-back into it, like maybe there's a covered inset. Wonder what that is hanging on the transom.....maybe a ramp?

You're a mass of knowledge and information, Tad. She reminds me a bit of Maverick, a yacht advertised here on TF a couple of years ago.

That is a bit odd, I'm going with swim platform or a trampoline.
You can jump onto it from the top deck and get propelled onto shore without getting your feet wet :D

I was mesmerized by her rear end when I noticed her in Anacortes....

Nice pic West,
Looks like she draws 8' and has a crane for the anchor.

On this boat I like the walk around decks .. especially on the second deck.
 
The most important piece of gear any serious mariner needs to go to sea. Timbits. Got 'em.

Around 70' x 19.75', Master draws about 12' of water, her four bladed prop is 8' in diameter and turns at 100 RPM, triple expansion 332 HP Speedwell enginebuilt in Scotland in 1916. Cylinders are 26", 15.5", and 9.6" in diameter. She carries 10,000 imperial gallons of bunker oil. She's about 92 gross tons registered.

We've only had our Timmy's for about a year, so I'm not sure how they used to be. I will say that it has replaced Dunkin' as my go to morning junk food and coffee joint.

Wait... What thread is this again?
