Description
he ââGdanskââ is a modified version of the ââPuckââ Polish fishing boat design for a client who didnât mind giving up the double ended hull. Her basic particulars are similar to the ââPuckââ design but she has a transom stern, a cuddy and side decks. The transom is narrow at the waterline so that the beautiful lines of the Polish fishing boats are not upset and the additional width above the waterline gives more sitting area. Again the design may be adapted and fitted out much as you require and the cuddy may be lengthened or shortened or finished as an enclosed cabin. With the cuddy. the mast is stepped in a tabernacle.
