ROBERTS 310

LITTLE CRAB is a smaller version of the Chesapeake Crab Skiff I drew several years ago.

JUNIOR, designed to compete in Diecipiedi (10 Foot) Class (www.diecipiedi.it), is norrower and therefore less stable than other boats but it is one of the fastest monohulls of the class.

Before the advent of the outboard motor, rowing/sailing skiffs were common on Chesapeake Bay. They were used for crabbing, fishing, transporting goods, and enjoying summer evenings with a friend.
