From Glen-L Marine:
All frames have straight contours using standard materials, and standard 4' x 8' sheets are used for the planking. Our various accessory kits include all the hard to-find items required to equip your very own in "sail-away" condition.
The FANCY FREE is an ideal boat for the couple who wants to do weekend or vacation sailing along coastal waters where shoal draft is critical. Hull draft with board-up is just 8", yet the ballast gives reassuring stiffness in a breeze. The light displacement and large sail area makes this boat a surprising performer, even for the racing skipper. While not intended for long distance open ocean use, FANCY FREE, when heeled, forms a "vee" at the water for an exceptionally dry ride.
Accommodations on FANCY FREE are of a "camping" type for two. There's full headroom above the berths, plus the comfort of a settee with a hinged dropleaf on the centerboard trunk. The galley area is adjacent to the hatch for standing headroom and the portable head slides out from under the bridge deck for use.
A portable ice chest is also located under the bridge deck, accessible from either the cockpit or from inside the cabin. Storage spaces are located below the cockpit sides, and below the aft deck.

A HEAD FOR RUBATO
I dislike port-a-potties. I'm not too fond of poop in any form, really, being non-scatological by nature.
THE ARTFUL SAILOR
Ain' nothin' new about using sails as nautical billboards. The ancients painted all sorts of signs and symbols on their sails.
