For Sail
Built as a tender for our Daysailer. The Pram will help us get out to the mooring and back. This is not my first build, but is a great first boat for anyone who wants to give building a try.
This section of our web site, an extension of the Launchings department of WoodenBoat magazine, is dedicated to sharing news of recently launched wooden boats built or restored by our readers. If you’ve launched a boat within the past year, please email us at launchings@woodenboat.com, or post your news here. (All posts are subject to approval and editing before being made live.)
To refine your search, add quote marks. If you search Wood Duck, you will get all the listings which include Wood and Duck. To refine, search “Wood Duck” and you’ll see just Wood Duck results.
