24' Gaff Cutter / Double Ender

‘Nettie’ is a 24’ gaff rigged cutter designed by Fenwick Williams. She is a sister ship of the famous ‘Annie’. She was built in 1997 by owner Paul McKinney and French and Webb of Belfast, ME.

With the bowsprit, she is 31' overall, carvel planked hull with cedar over white oak frames. Her decks are Dynel covered fiberglassed marine ply, spars are spruce and cap rails are mahogany. Her 405 sq ft sails (main, staysail, jib) are in excellent condition, made by Gambell & Hunter of Oceanus cloth. She is powered by 16hp Yanmar 2gm20f diesel.

She has 2 sleeping berths amidship, a head forward, a Garmin Echomap UHD 745V with custom swing out bracket to companionway, VHF, and a depth finder. She has a folding table between berths, excellent storage, 6 electric lights, a gimballed oil lamp, brass water pump, and mahogany companion doors with summer screens. She has a 6’ bowsprit, displaces 5 tons and feels like a 30 footer.

In 2024 a full traditional re-caulking and re-seaming of the hull was performed by a master shipwright and in 2025 all of her mahogany was wooded and 10 coats of new varnish applied photos on this listing do NOT show the new varnish). It is now time to wood and revarnish the mast.
