I just came across these on YouTube.
I wish he would point the camera inside the boat, to give more viewers a look at what goes on while underway, or the fleming lifestyle...
What he shows never tells you about the boat yoga to swap filters, replace hoses, etc.

Gosh, those Flemings look the spitting image of my DeFever designed Grand Alaskan!
Yep, they are identical... They both float on water.
The placement of hull portholes are different, where is your portuguese bridge, just for starters...
If you read his book, they were trying to get defever to design one and either he had contract / time issues or was too expensive or something that prevented it. So they went to a different NA to design it.
In one passage, he was talking about how far to space the planking grooves on the first boat and he used the "ones he had measured off another boat"
So, I guess Art Defever would be flattered
I don't recall that Fleming worked with Art Defever from his book, but I've slept since then
