Build Your Own 17′ Norwegian Pram Boat Using Our Downloadable Boat-building Plans
Combining traditional boat-building with present-day construction methods, this 17′ Norwegian pram cruising boat is extremely stable in the water.
The sloop rig with sprit mainsail (a type of sail with the most power for the shortest spar) is efficient and gives the boat extra speed – perfect for handling the spar buoys in harbor or out at sea. The rig is extremely easy to handle – even if you’ve never sailed before.
