About this listen
On this week’s episode I had the opportunity to sit down with Tony Grove and Tobi Elliot of Gabriola Island, BC. Tony is restoring the 1897 built Sloop Dorothy, and Tobi is the videographer filming a documentary on the project.
Dorothy was built in 1897 on Vancouver Island, BC. She is a 34ʹ LOA gaff rigged sloop with a 9ʹ beam and 5ʹ draft. She is red cedar planked on oak and fastened with copper rivets and roves and has an elegant fan tail design.
