Shellback Dinghy Sailing Kit

Our pre-cut kits have been re-tooled (cut by computer-guided routers) to provide you with extremely accurate parts. And, the kits now come with just about everything needed except the elbow grease.

The ladder frame--the “foundation” of the boat---is included with the kit. It’s pre-slotted, and so slick it goes together in 5 minutes. Nice and rigid, it even includes the molds. Epoxy is also included.

You get all the parts needed, spars shaped to 8 sides, all fastenings, rudder hardware, oarlocks and sockets, plans, instructions, and rigging line & hardware. Wood is Sapele, which is the highest grade marine mahogany ply available.

Also included with your kit:
"How to" book How to Build the Shellback Dinghy
Rudder Mounting Hardware
Belaying Pin
5 sheets of plans

Not Included:
paint / varnish
oars
