Launchings

After admiring the Crowninshield FAME, and Maynard’s article a few years back, I decided to imitate the high peaked spar design of the sails. CAPTAIN NATHAN is 19 inches long, 6 inch beam, 8 inch keel with weights. It sails best in some breeze, with a tendency to windward.

Just completed this is a Duck Trap Wherry, designed by Walt Simmons. Purchased as a stalled project off Craigslist the purchase included plans, a set of forms, a keel with stem and transom attached and four sheets of plywood.

This is a Carolina Dory, designed by Jeff Spira (International) Boats. Built with (mostly) materials from the local Lowe’s/Home Depot store. Exterior hull is 1/2″ exterior plywood covered with 6 ounce fiber glass cloth and about 6 coats of MAS Epoxy. Very easy plans to follow...
