"Halcyon"
1948/1984
Not very often does one get the oppertunity to become custodian of a true classic workboat conversion. "Halcyon" was purpose designed as a working salmon troller by Naval Architect Bill Garden and built for a member of the Prothero family. Fished the Northwest coast from Alaska to Oregon for over 20 years. In 1984 master shipwright Sam Fry acquired her and spent 10 years converting her into a comfortable and seaworthy cruising troller.
The original interior, decks and houses were removed down to the frames and planks and so began the project. Bill Garden's original drawings were used to replicate the forepeak and wheelhouse. The fish hold and the working deck were converted into a single cabin following the shearline of the original hull housing a galley, vanity/shower, alcove and settee. The design goal was to replicate the original Bill Garden's lines to look like a working troller until you step aboard and realize that she is a new built on the original hull. Whether you are winning awards at a wooden boat show as she has several times or just sitting at the dock "Halcyon" is sure to turn heads. You won't be disappointed with just how beautiful the custom interior is. Call today to schedule a viewing of this beautiful vessel.
