Yes, I also think that Minimus is a terrific little boat, though I saw it at a Heritage Festival a little while ago.. and I loved.
It is really hard to believe that it is 20 feet long when you see it in person though!
The paddleboxes have been changed though!
It looks smaller here!
Here it is meant to look like a small Emmylou, I heard that at the Heritage Festival where this was taken.
