Wow, that's an elegant boat - very long for a daysailer. I like it.



Come to think of it, it looks a bit like a cross between a skerry cruiser and a folkboat (I like them both, not putting anything down).

Thanks folks. She's a long, lean dayboat for sure, but that was the client's desire. He wanted traditional, elegant, shoal and fast. This is the second rig on the boat, the first was a 3/4's sloop, but he found it difficult to get a decent rate and crew to hold her down. The main has since been cut down further (sissies).



The bottom doesn't present any real difficulties, just a slightly interesting garboard seam. The stub keel houses the vast majority of the centerboard and some ballast. Though it's shape looks deceiving, it mimics the leading edge of the board in the raised position. This permits the stub to be minimal (as possible) and terminate well before the rudder. The stub also allows the board case to live below the sole, which frees up the cockpit considerably.



Plans are available if you drop me an email.
