SKYLARKER II, Belmar, NJ – 2010 Captain Steve Spinelli at the stern of his "SKYLARKER II" from Belmar, NJ in April 2010. Captain Steve purchased the "SKYLARKER II" in 1996 from Captain Ken Namowitz and continued to operate her from Belmar, NJ. The "SKYLARKER II" was built in 1980 and is considered a Gillikin-built boat; the builder, Mervin Rose of Rose Craft, previously worked for the Gillikin family for many years. Captain Steve later took the boat back to Gillikin for repairs and removed the gin poles and about two feet of the cabin roof overhang. She later sailed as the "SEA NYMPH" and as the "BANTAM" before becoming the "SHOWTIME" from Block Island, RI.
