Off Center Harbor's Remarks
Boat builder/designer Ralph Stanley was a legend in his home port of Southwest Harbor on Mt Desert Island, Maine. The boats he built, mostly Friendship sloops and lobster boats, were known for quality workmanship, good materials, and his fine eye for traditional design. Quite naturally they are valued on the used boat market in Maine and beyond. Not only will this thirty-footer be a fine picnic boat, she will surprise you with her seaworthiness.
