    What’s the story with the Trekka? Why the bevel below the deck? Interesting looking.

      Built by, sailed around the world–starting in Victoria–by John Guzzwell. Smallest boat to make such a passage at that time (1950s). I think the “bevel” is intended to make of the decks take on reverse sheer (more torpedo shaped than Murre, who is more sweedish clog shaped–i.e. she swoops up toward the bow). Purpose would be to help the boat shed water in rough seas. She’s 20 feet. http://www.johnguzzwell.com
