The Schooner Brilliant (a.k.a Christine-Margaret, Logan James, and Thomas Hoyne) was built alongside the Red Lion by Ferd Nimphius in Neshkoro, Wisconsin. Charles Kuralt did a special feature on the construction of the wooden vessels in 1984. Douglas Turnbull and Charles "Jerry" Hodlmair commissioned the schooner Brilliant to be built by Nimphius Boat Works.

And on a side note, I can't find a single reference to the Red Lion in the Internet much past the 1980's. It is a distinctive ship. One source said it was build for an ex-Ozark Airlines pilot who had money making plans for her. I'm sure those plans failed, but what happened to her next? Is it operating as a dockside restaurant somewhere, was it hauled ashore to an amusement park? Does anyone know?

According to previous posts, the Red Lion wrecked not many years after her launch in the mid-80's.

This schooner Brilliant had her name changed to Logan James and is now being chartered out of Rhode Island as the Thomas Hoyne.

My guess would be in the winter of 1984-1985. The Christine-Margaret was launched in the Fall of 1985.

My grandfather skippered the Red Lion while it was in Milwaukee, and I had the opportunity (as an ungrateful 6 year-old) to sail with her and the crew on a few occasions. Some time later we visited the Nimphius shop while on vacation. I never imagined I would find footage like this this.

I have a Nimphius boat, an Atkin vixen design. He was a master shipbuilder, and i Kuralt has it exactly right. A wonderful man, wonderful boat, wonderful family
