What do the Black Crown Sam Devlin designed and built boats Driftwood, Wood Duck and Moonglow all have in common? They have returned to the site of their birth for extensive refreshing and updating of already wonderful, compact, economical, and seaworthy cruisers ideal for 2 to 4 persons. Driftwood will cruise easily at 12 to 18 knots using only 3-5 gallons per hour yet can kick up to 22 knots when you need to make a tidal gate or quickly cross a shipping lane.
