I love this boat and don't know a thing about it. Few boats this small are so carefully scaled that it's hard to know how small a boat EIDER is until you're standing(towering) over it at the docks. It's a lower maintenance wooden boat with a "work boat" finish of mostly paints. Getting the lens down to knee level, you get a better sense of the boat. Next to it is a very low decked CCA design. Boat decks have really risen to modern heights. But she's all a proper ship. Well designed cockpit, bridgedeck, ample decks, foul weather ventilation, it's all there, including a jewel like tiny galley I could just spy from the dock.
