Plans & Kits

9 foot wooden catamaran

Didi Cruise-Mini radius chine plywood cruising sailboat

Our Deben Class designs are inspired by the original Deben 4-tonner, which my father commissioned from W. M. Blake in 1936 and the Deben 6-tonner, designed by my father in 1950. At least 35 of the 4-tonners and 3 of the 6-tonners were built between 1937 and 1960.

Our pre-cut kits are cut by computer-guided routers to provide you with extremely accurate parts. And, the kits come with just about everything needed except the elbow grease. The ladder frame—the “foundation” of the boat—is now included with the kit.

Designed for strip-planking, the Controversy 36 features light displacement and good headroom, with light and open space throughout.

Construction: Strip-planked over bulkheads and frames

Lofting is required.

Plans include 16 sheets.

The BRIO 555 is a fast and easy to handle boat, suitable to be sailed sportively by a crew of two or quietly and safely by a larger crew.

This is my latest design for the Twopointfour metre class. An easy to build lowbudget boat ment to be competetive on the race course.

With a length of 6′-6″ (2m) “Dingo” is our shortest boat weighing only 28lb (13kg). Easy to car top, easy to take to the water and back, easy to launch from the mothership without breaking your back. With a beam of 4′ (1.20m) the boat is stable enough to stand up in.

Growler is our new, highly versatile transom-stern cruising canoe, and “big sister” to our popular and highly acclaimed 12 ft. solo canoe, Newt.
