Engineless Sailing, Travel and Nauture Videos (Family Friendly) We are a Canadian couple who set off to build a 33 foot wooden sailboat, a modified L. Francis Herreshoff design, in 2002, from the keel up. The varnished haul is planked and framed with Iroko and the masts built out of Spanish cedar. Mark who is a wooden boat builder wanted to get started building his own. This was accomplished over 19 years, while working full time, raising and homeschooling four children. The build started in Ontario and in 2015 we moved to Prince Edward Island. Eleutheros was built in two provinces and in seven different locations. In August of 2021 we launched Eleutheros at Beach Point, Prince Edward Island for the first time. Our plan is to sail and work along the way. Join us on our sailing journeys, on our engineless, ketch rigged, 33 foot wooden sailboat. Mark & Cindy
