Found this picture while looking for a new project. Does anyone know what it is ?. It does look similar to some Chris Craft Designs.

Thanks John

Looks beautiful  :-))

I think she was built by Shain Boatyard of Seattle, Washington in 1947.

Gypsy was 47.6ft & a similar cruiser "Merlin" is documented in the link below.
