Short handed offshore racer

Tern is a lengthened (to 23'9') version of my earlier 20' design Ratty.

The Mill Creek 13 looks good, they're easy to build, and even though they are more stable than most kayaks, the Mill Creek 13 offer good speed and handling that you'll never get tired of.

Our Talon Series boats are designed to handle good seas with speed and comfort. We use a 30 degree dead rise found on production speed boats to make a soft ride.

Start Building ... Get Floating!!

This gozzo is a modern version of a traditional Italian small fishing boat: built as an open boat and without having performance as a priority in mind, it is easy to row, seaworthy and pleasant to use

Our pre-cut kits are cut by computer-guided routers to provide you with accurate parts. And, the kits come with just about everything needed except the elbow grease.The ladder frame—the “foundation” of the boat—is now included with the kit.
