For Felix 15 Supplement Click HERE This is one of those commissions that every designer loves to work on occasionally - a step back in to pure nostalgia. But having said that, our researches before designing this vessel showed just how expert early...

This canoe has been designed for a client who wanted a canoe which would take a crew of 8 or so adolescents. She is designed to be built and transported in two halves (although she can be built in one piece) and bolted together at the waters edge...

A simple ply over frame punt for general estate duties as well as river poling – not as shapely as our Cambridge punts but simple and efficient—the plans show aft storage but she could be fitted out in many different ways and could have a small...

This is a fairly narrow launch (4'7" beam) for light weight fit-out. Her hull has hard bilges giving maximum stability for her beam making her a fine river or lake launch. At 1’9” (0.52m), the draft has been kept to a minimum to make trailing easy...
