Kingston 15, A personal weekender for 2.

A 10' Flat Bottom Powerboat/Rowboat

The Boat BW is a trailerable plywood stitch-and-glue skiff. The outboard-powered modified-vee hull with lifting strakes provides an efficient hull that rises on to plane with little-to-no porpoising. The below-deck bulkheaded and sealed compartments provide superb secondary flotation.

The SAMPAN 36 HOUSEBOAT is a simple, pragmatic floating home suitable for a couple with a child. It is self-contained and intended for use in a marina or at anchor. It may employ an outboard motor, or simply be towed to a semi-permanent mooring.

We designed KIS dinghies in order to meet a very practical need of amateur boatbuilders.

This design came about when I got to thinking about having an elegant dinghy for our 34′ Topsail Ketch Sunrise.

Lapstrake is a forgiving building method. The overlapping spruce planks allow for a little error when installing, which gives the classic canoe an extra layer of peace of mind when you’re on the water.

Lapstrake-plywood daysailer with a shapely wineglass transom, unstayed sprit rig, and wide, flat, keels for easy trailering.

Construction: Lapstrake plywood planking over steam bent frames.

SILVER 333 is a very small classical runabout for one or two people which may easily be transported on top of a mid-size car roof.
