The F1830 is the newest BYD design and the tandem version of the F1430 Sit On Top kayak. It is a second generation boat, with an optimized hull and simplified kit. This boat will easily carry 2 adults and a big cooler, or 2 adults and a couple of small kids.

The i550 is a fast modern sharpie type hull shape owing its roots to the historic sharpies of Long Island Sound. The sharpies were known for their speed and seaworthiness, the i550 picks up where they left off.

The traditional yawlboat is a hard-working boat, carried on the stern davits of a larger working vessel. They have sweet shapes to be easily driven and as was befitting the pride of workmanship that went into their construction.This latter day version is much lighter and smaller in size.

This boat is a larger version of my popular POINT COMFORT 18, a traditional Chesapeake Bay workboat type reinterpreted for simpler and more modern construction.

This schooner is designed to be able to cruise offshore with a crew of four people.
Here heavy displacement and built down hull will make for a comfortable motion
