CYK Cat Ketch Anywhere?
I owned a Catalina 25' sailboat prior to owning Great Ketch. It was extremely easy to find information about the Catalina because there were thousands of these boats produced. On the contrary, approximately 100 of the 31' Herreshoff Cat Ketch boats were built; five of the 33'. CKY closed business during the mid-late 80s when many sailboat companies went bust.
Fortunately, I did stumble upon several pictures of a H31 that was for sale. The H31 was located in Florida. The H31 looks very much similar to the Great Ketch. The pictures are posted as a resource link in the side bar. Notice how elegant the boat sits on the water.
I continue to look online for other owners of this rare boat.
Enjoy.
