Redux was photographed by Jay Cushman for Flicka Friends #68 (Spring 2020), riding on her mooring in Burnt Coat Harbor. The caption points out two details of her deck layout: a traveler mounted on the stern pulpit, and a jib rigged for self-tacking on a pair of green sheets. She took the front cover of the following issue, #69, in a photograph made near Swan's Island by Brian Krafjack of The Island Market and Supply while he was running mail and freight to Frenchboro.
