Description
The 17â Esk is a development of our 2 other Esk designs. She has the same swept up bow and flared out the forward sections to help her in choppy waters and her additional length gives her more storage space and a good ride in choppy waters.
She has water-tight compartments in both ends and space for water-tight stowage. Construction is for easy stitch and tape ply using 4 sheets of 4mm plywood.
