F-36 MullCat Sloop or Ketch, Gun-Mount Spinnaker
F-38 Mull - Same as 36 but with sugar scoop swim platform

Gary Hoyt founded Freedom Yachts in 1976 with the F-40, he sold
Freedom Yachts in 1985 after some slow years. He used naval
architects from the Herreshoff design offices for his early designs.
Tillotson-Pearson
brought Gary Mull on board as designer for a new series af great
sailing but awfully conventional looking boats. David Pedrick
designed for the (again) new owners starting in the mid 90’s after
Tillotson-Pearson Composites sold the yacht division off. The company
that own the Freedom Yacht name only makes powerboats under the
Legacy name today.
Gary Hoyt lives in R.I. He is still working with niche designs and
rigging innovations.
Gary Mull died in 1994 at age 55 from cancer. One of the plain
looking boats that just passed you is probably of his many designs.
Ron Holland started apprenticed under Gary Mull, he still designs
yachts including the 247’ superyacht Mirabelle. See
www.ronhollanddesign.com
David Pedrick has many fines boats to his credit including Cup
winners. http://www.pedrickyacht.com
Eric Sponberg was an inhouse engineed at freedomyachts for a number
of years, he still build unstayed masts. See

There is a fin-keeled F33, built by Tillotson-Pearson in the US, for sale in the
UK at
present. It also has a fixed sprayhood or dodger. Sails. I think, are on tracks
with booms; I
saw her some years ago sailing out of the harbour here. I don’t believe any UK
built
F33/35s were built with fin keels.

Gerald Freshwater,
Shetland Isles.
