I built this slightly stretched version (9 1/2 to 11 ft) of Paul Butler’s Montana Pram for my son, his wife and 2 daughters (2 and 7) exploring for ducks, frogs, and adventure on a small pond adjoining their back yard. We launched it on my granddaughter’s 7th birthday in July 2024.

This design from CYD 4710 for Lorenzato’s family build from Cantiere Alto Adriatico. It’s very innovative in the layout and is the first of a series with this type for the same yard, with two separate cabins: one forward and one aft, with the dinette and living in the middle of the boat.
