<< VIEW ALL LAUNCHINGS
Helen M is a 12′ wooden boat shop fishermans’ sailing dinghy in clinker/glued lapstrake construction of fiji kauri marine ply with copper & silicon bronze fastenings & hardwood frames. The WBS dingy is based on Tasmanian clinker fishermans’ dinghys of the late 19th & early 20th that were used to tender larger cray fishing boats such as the Storm Bay & Derwent Hunter, that I think sailed out of Hobart, Tasmania at that time.
