Duster Design 1766


Duster was designed per her owners design brief: The owner wishes to build a "sweet" (his word) sailing auxiliary, suitable for family cruising or ocean racing under the C.C.A. Rule. The lines practically duplicate those of Inverness, design #1689, but her rig and accommodations are entirely different.

Built by Paul Luke of Northeast Harbor, Maine, she was launched in 1964.

Here are the plans.


Heres an old magazine article although I cant identify what magazine this is from.


The boat was completely rebuilt by Cove Landing Marina of Lyme, Connecticut in 2002.
