D'ANNA is a 30' cold-molded evolution of the 29' Beals Island lobster boat, DIANA

This gozzo is a modern version of a traditional Italian small fishing boat: built as an open boat and without having performance as a priority in mind, it is easy to row, seaworthy and pleasant to use

The Wood Duck 10 Hybrid combines the best qualities of stitch-and-glue plywood kayaks with the beauty of a cedar strip deck.

MINUETTO SPRINT has been designed according to the rules of the Mini Transat Class as a fast, but not extreme, boat.

The SILVER 333 is a very small classical runabout for one or two people which may easily be transported on top of a mid-size car roof. Maximum suggested power of the motor is 15/20 HP, which is sufficient for planing.

This is a design for the 2.4mR class. The measurement formula is the same as for the bigger sisters like the famous 12mR yachts once used for the Americas Cup. As the down-scaling would leave the boat with to little righting moment there has been some adjustments to take care of this.

Designed by John C. Harris, this light but sturdy fishing and utility skiff—a “crab skiff,” as they’re known on the Chesapeake Bay—has been dubbed the “Peeler” after the Chesapeake slang for a local delicacy, soft-shell crabs.
