Cosa tratta questo video
Three Ed Burnett–design gaff cutters — Emily Harris's *Panacea* and the newly launched *Galatea*, owned by Alison and David, plus Tony's boat — sail together on the Carrick Roads off Falmouth in September in light, sunny conditions.0:53 All three were built by Ben, creating a tight community around the Ed Burnett 109 design.9:47 Emily describes the Ed Burnett gaff cutter as exceptionally easy to single-hand: light on the helm, self-balancing enough to leave the tiller unattended, and proven as a capable sea boat on the west coast of Ireland. *Galatea* features a flush, uninterrupted deck with no cabin trunk, giving a clean sheer line and easy movement forward. *Panacea* sits on a creek mooring Tony can see from his house, and he sails her regularly.3:35 The group discusses the emotional investment owners and builder share in wooden boats built to commission, and Emily expresses a goal of commissioning a third Ed Burnett 109 to form a small racing fleet on the Carrick Roads.7:56
