Another Easterly 30

I was recently in New Orleans and spotted this Easterly 30. Because of the distance from me and and noise in the area, I couldn't speak with the folks on board.

I don't even think they saw me take any photos. (None of them are identifiable, so I can't imagine them getting upset by the photo.)

I would have liked more info on the boat, but it just wasn't possible to speak with them under the circumstances.

Last E-38?

Here is a 1980 Easterly 38 in New Orleans that is rumored to be the last one built.

If you look closely, it has the more squared area above the v-berth. Also, if look closely at the cockpit, you can see how narrow the combing is and how it is widened at one point to accommodate the winch. This boat, Yankee, was getting a bit run down, but over the last year some improvements have been made.
