Paul and Chuck aboard Redwing

Paul and Chuck aboard Redwing



Paul Tingey (left) was happy to show off his recently finished Redwing in Auckland this February. The quality was beautiful, the ergonomics just as expected, the shape as close to perfect as anyone short of a reincarnated Nat Herreshoff could devise. And (whew) the two keelbolts that hold the keel on didn’t leak a drop. I think everyone who owns a motoryacht should have one of these on his boat deck. And everyone who doesn’t own a motoryacht though these will use a fixed, not removable, keel.
