Description
Swampscotts as a breed usually have a narrow 'tombstone' transom making them more or less double ended (semi Swampscott dorys have a wider transom) - when they end up with a true 'sharp' aft end, they become 'surf' dorys
She can be constructed in stitch and tape or, using the building jog details given, in clinker/ply.
The Plover can be built as a pure rowing boat or with the rig - details for a daggerboard are shown but there is also room for a centreboard. She is a jaunty and attractive little boat that can take 2 or 3 sailing and 3 or 4 rowing.
