Fox (boat)

Fox was a specially built surfboat to be rowed across the Atlantic Ocean.

He built the Fox with watertight compartments and hand rails on the keel, for righting the boat if capsized at sea.

[2] The original Fox is lost, but in 1975 a replica of the Fox was built by the Long Branch Ice Boat and Yacht Club (LBIBYC) of New Jersey with the participation of Harold L. Seaman, son of the boat builder.

As a youngster, Harold Seaman backed-up most of the rivets during construction of the original Fox.

At age 91, he provided a full set of plans reconstructed "from old photographs, shop records and memory, lines and measurements, correct within a fraction of an inch" .
