Plans & Kits

Here's a handy boat that can be rowed, sailed, and powered with up to three large adults, and it "nests" to take up less space.

The Shearwater is an eye-catching, light and fast cruiser that does many things well. It is a strong contender for the budget-minded paddler looking to answer the 'if I could only have one kayak' need

Shallow-drafted V-bottomed cruiser with cross-planked bottom & berths for three. Construction: Carvel planked sides over sawn frames; cross planked bottom. Alternative: Strip-planked topsides. Lofting is required. Plans include 7 sheets.

The Skoota 28 is a 28 ft plywood demountable coastal cruising power catamaran for a couple. Ideal for the European canals, the PNW or the Great Loop. It will demount for transport on a flat bed lorry/truck or could even be towed by a large car but should not be considered “trailable”.

VILA 570 is the smallest of a family of three small planing cruisers boats ranging from 19’ to 22’.

If we have to base ourselves on market demand before 2008, the two daysailers that we propose are very small. At that time, generally characterized by a continuous increase in boat size, it seemed as though a daysailer could not be less than 12 m, (even better if it exceeded 15 m).
