Early September saw the launching of cedar strip planked Stand-Up-Paddleboard, designed and built by Andrew J. Malcomb of Dwarka Boatworks in Central Mass.
An 18′ Lug rigged yawl build which took nearly 1500 hours over 4 1/2 years. The hull is strip planked with Western Red Cedar. Structural parts and interior furniture are Philippine Mahogany. Spars are Sitka Spruce.
SANSTERRE is a marine ply vessel constructed in Western Australia by local Shipwright Alf Fury, from a design by Naval Architect Len Randell, modified and optimised by Alf during build.Originally constructed in 1971 and painted red, she was purchased in 1990 by the current owners.
I built this boat in 1985 for my mother, and this past year did extensive rebuilding of bottom, transom, and converted it to a sprit rigged sailing skiff with a daggerboard. It sails well!
