Owner's Remarks
HOPE is an almost a fifty year old classic so there is some peeling paint and varnish but the Wasque hull is a true head turner and the solid hull layup makes for a great ride. Ã? If I were to continue to own the boat the items I would address next are more cosmetic. Ã? The bottom needs soda blasting, barrier coat and new paint. Ã? The topsides and deck also could use fresh paint and varnish. Ã?Â

Wasque HistoryQuoting Nautical Quarterly 1978� " Traditional lobsterboat lines taken in fact from a Martha's Vineyard working boat-distinguish the WASQUE 32.� The sheerline is as graceful as one could want, the house lines in good proportion, the deck spaces ample and efficient for anging, line-handling, accommodating a daycruising crowd.� This is an aesthetically pleasing boat, starting out with the plain grace of work-boat lines and finish with first quality teak trim and on deck with sturdy hardware.� More than attractive, the WASQUE is as able as any working lobsterboat in the Northeast's tide rips and tall water-the full buoyant bow rises easily to head seas and displaces lumpy water without fuss: the long keel affords excellent control in following seas." WASQUE is pronounced "Way-Squee".� Named for Wasque Point on Martha's Vineyard.
