Meet Selma,
I see you have an interest in Selma. I owned it for nearly 20 years, and did a lot of work on it, I am the skipper. Selma was a bare hull when I started the project.

I have enclosed a few drawings, sails (not the mizzen because that is an old one), profiles and sketch of inventory.

Selma was built 1917 as a motorless sailship for fishing It was later motorized, the rudder is hinged to the aft stem.

See the sketch of below the deck, the rectangles in the engine room are tanks ca 400 litres each, one diesel and one water.

In the aft is a cabin originally, but I used it as workshop for engine and generator. The only cabin is in the front. Foreward of the head. But there are 4 beds in the main room, so called pilot beds, with bench in front. So 6 beds and if benches are used, 10. But that is crowded. We usually where 2 or 3 on board, and sometimes only me.

Ron now here.. I asked John if he had a photo of Selma with the sails set and he obliged with this one here.

The other photos were taken by me from YouTube videos. You can find several of these and listen to the loud two cylinder engine as she maneuvers around in the harbour.
