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.

TRILLO is a fast but non-extreme trimaran that we designed with the aim of making it as simple as possible for amateur boatbuilders.
