C. Raymond Hunt Exhibit
 

If your in the area; https://www.whalingmuseum.org/explor...ormance-speed/

If anyone goes take some pictures.

If I get some free time I might check this out.
The Whaling museum is about a 1/2 mile from the marina.

C Raymond Hunt has a building in South Dartmouth Padanarum although I think they have major headquarters in Boston.

My bad...I did take my Dad to the show. He is a retired marine designer and really appreciated it.
I happened to change jobs around that time and got a new phone...I have been too lazy to transfer everything.
I will get the pics and post up!

So I spent a nice cold winter day at the NB Whaling Museum with Dad and Son. A very classy museum-you should visit if ever in the area. I think most of us that grew up in Souther New England visited a few times as school kids.
The Hunt exhibit as you would expect was very well done. Lots of pics, art, models, and even draws full of blue prints to peruse.
Dad spent most of his career as a marine Designer (Blount marine= dinner boats Spirit of New York, Spirit of Atlanta, etc-if you have ever been on a harbor cruise for dinner you were probably on one of his boats. Dad spent the latter part of his career at Gladding Hearn ship yard= Pilot boats, police/fire-NYPD- as well as "Fast ferries" catamarans to Vineyard, Block island...). Dad really grooved on pulling out some of the blue prints and scrutinizing.
It was a lot of fun, and a good day with family.
It occurred to me we have owned 3 Hunt boats; a Grady, Whaler, and now the V20.
Pics are in no particular order-just as I was walking around.
Enjoy, Bill
