This is a very popular model, large enough to be very seaworthy but still Ultra light weight. It is styled after the New York Whitehalls with a skeg.

The lines are similar to the very successful Whitehall Jr.™, except the beam has broadened in consideration of adding a sailing rig.
The transom is sturdy enough to take a small outboard for those who would rather go fishing.

She is a strong and capable vessel and easily carries three 200 lb. people. Fun to sail, the short rig drives her easily. The boat is suprisingly stiff even in heavy air. I believe the high (6 to 1) ballast ratio is what holds her down.

The large skeg keeps her tracking straight; so therefore she is slow in stays and must be sailed through a tack.
