Fairbanks Meteor

Year Built: 1997

Length: 18.5 ft

The design is based on the 1902 raceboat the Fairbanks No. 2, possibly the original draketail launch which were popular work boats in New England.  The Fairbanks Meteor has the same beam dimensions as the Fairbanks No. 2 and is similar in profile, but is only half the length of the original design.

African mahogany plywood and Honduras mahogany.  Castings custom made by David Berg and Jim Ross.
