Plans & Kits

TRAWLER YACHT 585

Austral’s design is an outgrowth of my 26' Wynfall design, intended to provide additional space below decks, including standing headroom. She is slightly heavier, longer and wider, and has more freeboard than her smaller sister.

A handsome daysailer based on the Herreshoff Fish Class, but with a centerboard conversion similar to that of the Haven 12 1/2.

Construction: Carvel planked over steam-bent frames.

Lofting is required.

Plans include 6 sheets.

The Duo is a simple to build 3m (10ft) hard chine rowing and sailing dinghy that can be built from just two sheets of 4mm (3/16in) plywood. It is also available as a nesting dinghy, so it can be stored on a cabin roof or even in the back of a car.

Concept: The CCSF25 is a high performance offshore fishing and family boat, she has a classic running surface of 24 degree deadrise and 8.5' max beam. Wide chine flats for knocking down spray, integrated lifting strakes for high speed handling and directional control.

Being a big fan of the Irish Pucan and I’m hoping to make building in wood both simpler and more straightforward. An encouragement for builders to have a go at building their own boat.
