Shipwright, 1914 to 1925

Ed Monk, Sr., began his boat building career in 1914[2]Шаблон:Rp as an apprentice working on Robert Moran's schooner San Juan, under construction on Orcas Island.[3] In 1915, Monk worked with his father again in St. Helens, OR, building The City of Portland, "one of the largest wooden freighters ever built."[4] He continued to work for his father at Meacham and Babcock, a boatyard started in Seattle, WA, during World War I to build twelve wooden freighters for the US Government.[2]Шаблон:Rp During this time, he became more interested in designing boats and began studying toward that end.[4] Meacham and Babcock closed in 1919. Monk continued to work at various boatyards in Seattle and eventually found his way to the Blanchard Boat Co. in 1925. He was hired as a shipwright, but soon began to design small boats.[2]Шаблон:Rp His first large cruiser design, the 62 foot motor yacht Silver King, was built there in 1925[5]Шаблон:Rp

Naval architect, 1925 to 1973

At Blanchard Boat Co., Monk got to know the naval architect L. E. "Ted" Geary and in 1926, Geary hired Monk as a draftsman.[2]Шаблон:Rp[6] In 1930, Monk followed Geary to Long Beach, CA.[2]Шаблон:Rp[6] In 1933, Monk quit working directly for Geary and moved back to Washington state.[6] Monk maintained his association with Geary as his local representative.[2]Шаблон:Rp

Monk began his independent career as a naval architect by designing and building his "Plan No. 1," the 50 ft. bridge-deck cruiser Nan, which became his home for seven years, moored at the Seattle Yacht Club,[2]Шаблон:Rp and was briefly his office.[6] His designs were built by many of the Pacific Northwest builders like Blanchard Boat Co., Grandy Boat Co., Jensen Motor Boat, Chambers and Franck, Forder Boatworks, McQueen Boat Works, and Tollycraft among others.[2]Шаблон:Rp[4]

Ed Monk, Sr., wrote two books on boat building:

  1. Monk, Edwin, Small Boat Building, 1934, revised 1947, published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York
  2. Monk, Edwin, Modern Boat Building, 1939, revised 1949 and 1973,[7] published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York

Monk designed commercial vessels which included tugs[8]Шаблон:Rp and cargo carriers.[9]Шаблон:Rp He also designed the "Super Shrimp Trapper (SST)" Mimi for Ivar Haglund, launched in 1967.[9]Шаблон:Rp

Monk continued to design boats up until his death in 1973 at the age of 79.[2]Шаблон:Rp He had "produced more than 3,000 boat designs ranging from 6 foot dinghies to yachts and workboats in the 150 foot range."[9]Шаблон:Rp
