38' Libby Pictures?

[Powderpro]

I was wondering if anyone had some pictures of the 38' Libby they could post. What is the beam of the 38' Libby? Thanks.

Pictures, It is a nice looking hull.

One more picture. I have always admired Ernest's designs. Very easy on the eyes, and a nice ride for sure.

Does anyone know the beam? I'm assuming 13' plus, but don't know for sure. It is a nice looking hull, keel is a little deep up front compared to a Calvin Beal design. I'm sure Stewart will get some photos and information online as soon as he can.

The Kathleen Jean out of my marina.................13' beam is correct.

34 vs 38

One more picture. I have always admired Ernest's designs. Very easy on the eyes, and a nice ride for sure.

Thought I'd post the 34 again. The Libby's have a "distinctive" forefoot.
The keel has a "beefy seam" starting at the bow.

A few months back on this forum or another forum I posted pics of the 34 Libby.

A reply came back, and I'm paraphrasing, "I wouldn't want to drive that hull in a following sea".

So my question is. Does the 34 and 38 hulls "dig in up front" in a following sea?

Both Libby's are too big for my needs....I'm just curious what forum members have experienced with these hulls??

Bill I have not been on one offshore just lobstering in Long Island sound, but I could see that as an issue if not weighted correctly.

I really like that 34 with the split wheelhouse

Boat's name is the "Katie Aram"

Here's a few more pics!

btw, I watched this beauty steam out of the Merrimack River from a sandbar.

What a beautiful boat!

A sort of testament, to me anyways, is the modified Libby designed Foolish Pleasure. Oh Boy. She screams.

Richard--check the racing thread in the general discussion forum. Don't want to derail this thread.

Anyone have some pictures of the 38 Libby? Any shots of the stern out of the water?

 

[richardh]

this boat is for sale

 

[TRUE NORTH]

one in my harbor... also for sale as far as i know.

Richardh- That's the angle of picture I was looking for, thanks. I like the way they did the spray rail and lifting rails on Anticipation.

Here are two pics I found of a 38' Libby charter boat. These are all very nice looking boats.
