This is the least complete self-built model, and has only one of the
original spars, but it is in pretty good repair structurally. I have
both the original sails. It is a hollowed out solid hull, and I have
the cover for the deck hatch. The rudder is a lead-weighted system.
So I need to find/make a new mast and boom at the very least.

Another one that I can't give a decent origin to. Again probably from
a non specialist source, as the use of a weighted rudder suggests. This
system was common in the 19th century for all levels of sophistication
in design, but apart from some toy boats, was totally superseded by
the time these boats were built. The keel is pretty deep for this sort
of boat. The weighted rudder is quite a sophisticated device in its
developed form, with a range of interchangeable rudders of different
sizes and weights
