Here is the description from the manufacturer Gig Harbor Boatworks:
Our version of the traditional Whitehall is the ideal boat for the person or family who enjoys the look and performance of classic design. It easily carries four adults, and with one or two people rowing, our Whitehall achieves remarkable speed. We’ve combined the lapstrake style above the waterline with a smooth bottom for the ultimate combination of appearance, strength, and light weight. She is also a very smooth sailer with excellent performance on all points of sail.
Before the invention of the gasoline engine, Whitehalls were the boat of choice for the working harbor. Whitehalls were used by crimps to deliver goods – legal and illegal – to arriving ships; by water taxies to ferry passengers from ship to shore; and even by the shore patrol to chase those same crimps and ne’er-do-wells!
Today’s Whitehall owner will find this boat fast and yet stable, well-suited to fun on the water whether it’s fishing in the bay, a picnic on the far shore, a long row out to watch the sunrise or sunset, or a quick sail on a Sunday afternoon to let the cares of work float away. The long waterline for its length gives the boat a nice carry so that with a steady stroke the boat will stay near hull speed with minimal effort. The straight stem and narrow entry cut the chop for a smooth ride even when the weather kicks up a bit.
A sliding rowing seat is included standard, ideal for the person who wants the performance of a rowing shell but still wants load carrying capability.
