model barnegat bay sneak box

[scott hille]

I am looking for plans and/or scale boat carvers that make traditional Barnegat Bay sneak boxes. Any help would be great.

Scott, there is a guy in NJ who makes mini's. His name is Fred Weitmeyer. I have not been successful in speaking to him as of yet. When and if I do I will let you know. I have seen some pictures of some of his pieces from a decoy show and really like them.

Thank you. I believe he works with the Tuckerton Seaport.

Kevin Wharton makes a nice looking model box.

Below is a photo of Fred's boat as displayed at Parkertown a couple of years ago.

Scott if you are looking for plans. Howard I. Chapelle has them in American Small Sailing Craft. You should be able to find that book in the local library.
