I was thinking the same thing BB.

Someone had the ability to roll tubing well, looking at the frame design in the 2nd photo.

that was my second landyacht
not that that due to the big mast we had to leave them out in the weather , when some drunken s**t decide to take it for a sail one night and crashed it into a cliff
the steel yachts are the original lefroy fleet. about 30 built. I know of 2 left, one in Boulder, one in my yard.
being left in the open they rusted internally and collapsed
