The 28' Friendship Sloop KOCHAB, sail number 63 was built by Edward Speers of Blackrock, CT in 1953 "This sloop was designed in 1951 for a gentleman who desired a cruising version of these famous working craft. Though she may appear to be a true Friendship type, she is really only faithful in profile."
