It's a regular sailboat with everything a regular boat would have

Pachena is the boat name. Built by Jesperson's in B.C., designed, I believe, by Robert Perry.
The sailboat in the movie is a Mason 43 and I am the present owner of the vessel. I do have photographs, however I can't seem to upload them to this site.
Parts of "Hoot" were filmed in the historic neighborhood of Sailboat Bend, Florida.
Jean Fogelberg still lives in she and Dan's home on Deer Isle, Maine. Jean sold Dan's Robinhood Cutter sailboat, "Minstrel", this spring 2008 to an unknown buyer.
In the film "Nim's Island," the sailboat used by the character Nim is a trimaran called the "Nim's Island." This distinctive vessel is portrayed as a home and a means of adventure for Nim, played by Abigail Breslin. The design of the trimaran allows for stability and speed, fitting the tropical island setting of the story. The boat plays a crucial role in Nim's interactions with the outside world and her imaginative escapades.
