IRC short handed racer

Our Deben Class designs are inspired by the original Deben 4-tonner, which my father commissioned from W. M. Blake in 1936 and the Deben 6-tonner, designed by my father in 1950. At least 35 of the 4-tonners and 3 of the 6-tonners were built between 1937 and 1960.

With a length of 6′-6″ (2m) “Dingo” is our shortest boat weighing only 28lb (13kg). Easy to car top, easy to take to the water and back, easy to launch from the mothership without breaking your back. With a beam of 4′ (1.20m) the boat is stable enough to stand up in.

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

The Macomber 15 is a traditionally built flat bottom Westport River Skiff.
LOA: 15'2"
Beam: 5'11"
Draft: 6"
Max Hp: 25 (15Hp.recomended)

Virginia Park is an elegant lapstrake launch. Featured in WoodenBoat #234, Sept. – Oct. 2013, Virginia Park is built in the glued lapstrake method with steam bent frames.

Speed, good looks, and comfortable seating were the designer's main criteria for this double-ended centerboard daysailer.

Construction: Cold-molded over strip-planked inner skin.

Alternative construction: Strip, carvel planked (transom stern).

Lofting is required.

The New Ronan is a direct inspiration from our recently released Selkie design. When we came out with the Selkie we knew her sweeping lines would draw admiring stares, and we predicted petite paddlers would love that they finally had a boat designed specifically for them.

Inspired by the reconstruction of a 1950's boat.

As featured in WoodenBoat issue #274, the Tombolo 28 is an iconic modern classic outboard-powered cruiser. The mission of the design dictates a maximum length under 30′ and a trailerable beam.
