Shellback Dinghy

JEZEBEL is a Grand Banks 32 owned by Greg Walsh of Cape Elizabeth, Maine. When she needed a tender Greg decided to build a Shellback skiff from a kit sold by the WoodenBoat Store.  He built it over the winter of 2013 in his basement, rigging her with a spruce mast he'd built the winter before. Greg writes the kit came together “fairly easily with only occasional periods of chin rubbing.” He had much helpful advice from his neighbor Tony Owens.
