There must be something in the water up there in Maine. Maine-based Hinckley and Morris have recently launched big, graceful retro daysailers with sweeping sheerlines and fiberglass hulls. But compared to Amore, the 34-foot double-ended daysailer/weekender designed by David Ryder-Turner and built by William Cannell Boatbuilding in Camden, Maine, they are as modern as an iPod. Ryder-Turner's design was inspired by William Fife III's ultra-low-freeboard creations, and the hull was built of pine and cedar planked with long lengths of old-growth Douglas fir. The mast is hollow Sitka spruce. The deck is covered with canvas. With two bench seats, an enclosed head, and a small galley, the interior is as simple as the hull lines are graceful. Retro daysailers with modern construction may be all the rage right now, but boats like Amore are still available for classics lovers who want to go all the way back in time.
