Miniature voyaging and cruising yacht for amateur boatbuilders, can carry two, capable of short blue water voyages.

We designed KIS dinghies in order to meet a very practical need of amateur boatbuilders.

Most Pram dinghies are essentially rowing or sailing boats, which limits their speed potential to a mere 3 or 4 knots.

The Chesapeake Bay is home to many wonderful work boats, one of the most unique is the tiny Smith Island Crab Skiff. Our team race boat the “Twisted Oyster”, built and raced by a consortium of three friends, has been very successful.

A series of Catamaran Houseboats/canal boats has been designed with electric propulsion.

The boats have been designed to meet dimensional restrictions of the french canal waterways, however the design can be easily adapted to other inland waterway requirements.

“Mouse Grande” is the last of the mouse family. As the name implies she is the biggest with most internal volume. Large cockpit with two small flotation chambers/storage compartments at both ends. Preference was given to stability. Anglers can stand up and cast.
