Key Features:

The 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. Maximum suggested power of the motor is 15/20 HP, which is sufficient for planing.

Simplicity of construction, user friendliness (both for single or double) and high performance – all of this with reasonable costs. These are the main priorities which lie at the base of the DP 14’ design and which justify the main choices made, in particular:

An outboard skiff with a wide bottom and moderate rocker that contribute to stability and the ability to carry weight back aft.

• Construction: Cross-planked bottom, lapstrake sides
• Alternative construction: Plywood or glued-lapstrake plywood
• Lofting is required

The Unicat 2.4 is all about practicality and safety. Packing a 230kg load capacity, the Unicat is suitable for 3 adults, and the inverted vee hull is much more stable than conventional dinghies. The high freeboard also ensures a dry ride in most conditions.
