TRAWLER YACHT 585

Traditional Wood Strip CanoeThe Mystic River is a tidal estuary in southeast Connecticut. Starting in Old Mystic it runs through the pretty seaport town of Mystic, home to the Mystic Seaport Museum, out to Fishers Island Sound.

You think : I’d sure like to have a little harbor skiff to scoot around in the harbor/lake/river. And building a boat looks like fun, but I’ve never done it before; Not sure if I’m up to it.

The Sponge Docks Skiffs are designed for first-time builders, due to their simple stitch and glue assembly, yet on the water these good looking boats are versatile, stable and dry.

A roomy, comfortable auxiliary cruiser with sufficient headroom, two cabins and an enclosed head.

Construction: Carvel planked over steamed frames

Alternative construction: Cold-molded or strip

Lofting is required
