This is a design for a basic hull made from one piece of closed cell foam 1m x 4m x 50mm thick.
The success of the proven Chesapeake™ hull shape led quickly to demands for similar tandem and three-person designs. The Chesapeake Double™ and Triple™ are high-volume touring boats, with a 700lb payload that belies their surprising speed.
We designed KIS dinghies in order to meet a very practical need of amateur boatbuilders.
Small blue water cruiser with Junk rig, inside steering station, and accommodation for up to four persons.
Suitable for home boatbuilders, all wood construction, lead ballast cast in small pigs.
An extremely light weight canoe of good carrying capacity, it is very steady and easy to portage through the brush.
With a submerged clipper bow and high tucked transom, Kayleigh is every inch a classic power sharpie skiff. Her flat rockered bottom gives great initial stability and easy beaching.
