Talking about his boats Wade Dow says: " They really sell themselves".

but here are some comments from their owners:

In one of his essays, E.B. White wrote "Waking or sleeping, I dream of boats..." My wife and I have dreamed too. We have frequented the coves and harbors where these lovely boats live, confident someday that we would have our own. Lyric, our Bridges Point 24, is a better boat then we hoped for. Beautiful, able, comfortable, responsive, it is simply wonderful. We cannot say enough about the boat, the builder, or the magic it has brought us. - George H. Zentz, PHD

I looked at many boats before settling on the Bridges Point 24. I was struck by its wholesome traditional looks. I admired the work of the designer, Joel White, and I liked and trusted the builder, Wade Dow. None of that has changed in the years I've owned 'Nancy B' except that my esteem for all has grown as I've gotten better acquainted. The 'Nancy B' has carried us happily on many an afternoon sail, to island picnics, and each summer on several short cruises. She's a wonderful sailing boat, surprisingly fast and responsive in moderate air and also able to go right on when it breezes up to reefing conditions." - Kent Mullikin
