This is a dainty little boat that is relatively easy to build because it has been kept simple. The classic pulling boat lines are a delight to look at. It has proven to be a very seaworthy hull that is easily driven. It is like rowing a feather. 7 1/2' oars seem too long; however, when you row you wish they were longer because you can't feel any load. In order to keep the center of gravity low, it is shown with a cushion right on the bottom. However, thwarts can be added if desired, but keep them low.
Because of its size, it must be treated with some respect; however, it will handle two medium sized adults. At 20lbs it is a great boat to carry on the car. It is so easy to just throw in the water and go exploring.
We offer three options for this boat:
A partial kit typically contains the following four items: heat shrink 600D 8.4 oz polyester; Kevlar roving; structural epoxy; adhesive transfer tape (to attach the fabric).
Plans are sold separately and are not included in the Partial Kits. Some people purchase plans long before needing the kit and occasionally the kit is purchased to build custom design.
You can also purchase a partial kit + plans together.
