In todays video we take a tour of the 37ft Gaff Cutter Rainbear, a 20 year project built by Guy and Estelle Curwen.
Rain Bear is number 108 of Paul Gartside's designs and was launched in 2020. The boat is all wood with epoxy coated hull planking. A beautiful custom interior made with multiple species of reclaimed wood from Western Yew to Broadleaf Maple. The vessel is a testament to Guy & Estelle's eye for detail and a masterpiece of the BC coast.
