This Catamaran was designed for the avid home builder. Solid construction ensures a sturdy seagoing vessel for family cruising and exploring. The Magnificat was designed to maximise the space below and provide comfortable accomodations.

A stately 10′ rowing/sailing tender originally designed for my own first time build which is currently underway. I wanted an easy to construct boat, yet still retain the techniques and appearance of traditional lapstrake planking.

Nick Schade’s line of strip-planked Greenland-style sea kayaks are renowned for sophisticated performance on the water, beautiful lines, and sculptural hull details. But strip-planked boatbuilding is not for everyone.

In designing Capriccio we have been inspired by the aesthetics of the classic sport runabouts of the Thirties, which had the pilot seat in the extreme aft-wards of the boat and a powerful engine under a long deck in front of them.

THALAS 13' draws inspiration from the Whitehall, the most classical American row boat of the XIX century but, thanks to the modern construction techniques, is much lighter and has different hull lines

Thank you for considering my plans for BOWLER, a “cruising” version of my TOP HAT launch. These boats are descended from Harry Bryan’s inspired Handy Billy design, which in turn can trace it’s origins back to William Hand's vee bottom designs from the early 20th century.

A small river ferry has been designed to transfer up to 60 passengers.

The design is a catamaran of marine plywood construction using fibreglass/epoxy to connect the seems.

The design is using the torqeedo electric motor concept using power dense lithium ion batteries.
