I dug up my "Featherweight Boatbuilding" book by Mac McCarthy. On page 5 there is a picture of a beautiful Strip Barnegat Bay sneakbox. No other referance is made that I can find. The boat pictured may be up to 16' LOA. I'll contact Mac and find out what the status of these or similar plans are.

: Hi Roger,
: Mac has also built some Barnegat (sp?) Bay Sneakboxes stripper style and he
: may have some patterns for this little boat. Chappelle's book has that one
: in there also, as well as the Delaware Ducker, which is a double-ended 15
: footer that was used on the Delaware river for hunting and was even put to
: task in racing. Thes boats were usually manned by a gunner and another who
: rowed, poled or sailed the boat. Set up for racing, they were rigged as a
: cat boat with about 112 sq ft of sail (gaff). Chappelle's book is a jewel,
: grab one up if you can find it.
: There is a canoe sailing web site the has an on-line book from W.P. Stephens.
: There are a few versions of the Barnegat Sneakbox there.....one is a 16
: foot daysailer version. I think there are some lines for the
: "Tuckups" too. Those were some exiting boat to sail I'd imagine.
: The web address is about a mile long.....
