Petrel, Fiberglass Fish Class Sailboat

Post by rshowarth »

In the latest issue of Good Old Boat, on the last page, is a picture of what is decribed as a Petrel, a fiberglass version of a Fish Class Sailboat.

Does anyone know more about this boat? Are they still manufactured? When and by whom were they last manufactured? How many were made? Are they available?

Note:

I believe I have answered my own questions after a Google search.

I believe Petrel may have been the name of the boat, not the type.

It looks like at one time Cape Cod Shipbuilding may have built them. Now they are made in Maine as the Pisces 21 by the Classic Boat Shop, http://www.classicboatshop.com/pisces21.html

They are beautiful boats.

I looked at one of these at the Maine Boats & Harbors show last week. It's absolutely beautiful. If you are looking for a daysailor of this size it is definitely woth a look. I've never sailed on one though.
