Description
A lovely little skiff made from four sheets of 1/4ââ plywood using simple stitch and tape techniques. She has a fine entry for moving quickly and easily under electric outboard power (a conventional petrol outboard may also be used) with a stern wide enough to take someone sitting comfortably without upsetting the trim of the boat too much. 14â7ââ x 3â9ââ and approx 75 lbs., she is ideal for car topping to remote canals and rivers for some quiet fishing. She may be adapted with a trolley for wheeling around locks or will take an outboard well if preferred.
