A Visayan sailing outrigger of Sulu sea, Philippines. An ancient but complex watercraft that is ubiquitous to this island nation. Sailing the exotic patriarch of multihull tribe is a different adventure that you would like to do.

We designed a simple to build work boat with a vee-hull based on a proven work boat type, the Panga.

The Selkie takes two of our most popular boats (The Arctic Tern 14 and the Murrelet) and marries them into one elegant, light weight boat that petite women, or those looking for a tight fitting play boat, will love.

Prospector “Ranger” 15 — a pocket-sized prospector.The Prospector models built by the Chestnut Canoe Company were made in lengths from 12 to 18 ft.

A fine outboard, smooth riding, seaworthy, and rugged. 40-120hp outboard.

This retro styled powerboat was designed for weekend cruisers and fishing, her semi displacement hull offer seaworthy and sea kindly performance, good speeds with modest horsepowers.
