A small Carolina-Style center console fishing boat.

Late 19th-century skimming-dish sloop designed by Isaac P.

Modern and efficient, the Freedom 17 is a fast responsive tripping canoe that's also easy to build.

Like many traditional canoes, the Sassafras 16 is symmetrical, bow and stern. This allows a solo paddler to sit facing backwards on the forward seat for better trim. An elegant lapstrake canoe for two

A stitch & glue tender that can be rowed, motored and that sails like a charm.

You can enjoy paddling easier and funnier with less budget because it’s made of plywood, sectional and you can build one in a week.

NWP is a very low-drag touring kayak intended for paddlers weighing 150-200 pounds. Built from 4 mm plywood, in a garage, you can build two for the price of one kit! Heavier? try NWP XL.

Original authentic copies are scarce for the 19 Barrelback, certainly no shortage of modified and self translated versions available. Due to lack of details and authenticated plans this version of a 19 foot barrelback should best be described as loosely designed around the Chris Craft 19 1940.

This design has a built-down keel to provide a deeper bilge, a centerboard housed entirely within the ballast keel, and a straight sheer.

Construction: Strip-planked over bulkhead / frames

Lofting is required.

Plans include 8 sheets.

The Cradle Boat Baby Tender, for the newborn sailor.
