Hello Bruce,

Lyle Hess's boat designs are just wonderful! However, there is not much information on his work except for the Bristol Channel Cutters. Now the SBF 'boat stash' has no information on the La Paz but we did find that it was a production boat called the La Paz 25 and the design was commissioned in 1974. Also, we found a 'foto' of one on the Good Old Boat Magazine web site, link below.

Anybody else have some experience with this vessel to expound on her attributes, virtues, and faults...?
