We have been totally inspired by the traditional, beautiful and extraordinarily functional Senegalese pirogues for the design of the hulls of the SIRENE DU SALOUM.

The Stevenson Projects Weekender design is forty years old this year! Inspired by the classic lines of Friendship sloops, but translated to plywood, the Weekender has the looks of a classic era and the light-strong straight-forward simplicity of more modern materials.

Fun / Lightweight / Simple & ClassicSpecifications:

• LOA 11′ 7″
• LWL 8′ 6″
• Beam 48 3/4″
• Draft (board up/down) 5″/27″
• Depth amidships 14 1/2″
• Sail Area 50 (lug) 45 sf (sprit)

Key Features:

Designed as a cat schooner; both sails have big round poles at their leading edges. Considering the performance potential of this hull, this rig is appropriate. The stayless rig is clean and will be cheap to build with solid fir poles.

The Start 42 is designed to sail very very fast as a 14 ft international.

Luonteri is a “trail hiking kayak”, that can be divided into three parts. It makes storage and transportation more easy. In addition, the kayak can be transported as a “cart” with one wheel along roads or trails.

Jolly Boat is a rocking toy boat designed to provide years of make-believe nautical adventure for the young sailor, It is an adaptation of the classic flatiron skiff, a type that generations of “old salts” remember fondly as their first “real” boat.Jolly Boat has a length of 48″ and a beam of 23″

Construction: Glued lapstrake plywood. Alternative construction: Traditional planking, cold molded, strip plank, epoxy-fiberglass. No Lofting required. Plans include 5 sheets.

NINFA is a medium-size kayak, easy to use also for beginners. Versatility is its main characteristic: ideal for excursions in calm waters on the sea as well as in moderately difficult rivers.
