Blue Jay
DESIGN SPECS
<< VIEW ALL BOAT PLANS & KITS
Category: Daysailers
The Blue Jay was designed for very young skippers, ten to fifteen years old. This little boat is perfect, from whatever age perspective one looked at it. The design has gained popularity with its simple construction, while her rig is short, this craft is lively, fast and ghosts along easily in lightest air and she moves to windward better than most boats of her size. She is beautifully balanced, responsive as a dinghy and light enough for two people to load on a trailer, yet big and stable enough to make her a family boat. Perfect for a home building project.
