Arwen is available ready to row we don't make kits for this model. Arwen is built with high quality marine plywood in 6 mm for the planking, and 12 mm for the transom and all other structural parts. All masive wood is sapele or similar tropical wood, except the thwarts which are pine. Before finishing, all wood parts receive 3 coats of epoxy, and the bottom (sole and galboards) is fiberglassed in and out. Furthermore, anti-skid is apllied inside the top epoxy coating. UV-protection is achieved through 6 coats of polyurethane varnish.
The Eastport Pram: a lovely little pram whose kit makes an ideal first building project, thanks to the "Lapstitch™" patented system. A standing lug rig turns the tender into a small sailing dinghy for teaching your young sailors or messing about when the large boat is lying at anchor.
Length: 2.36 m, beam: 1.22 m, weight: 27 kg. Sail area: 3.63 m2.
The Eastport Pram is available as a building kit or ready to row/sail. The kit contains everything needed to build the pram. You add just the paint and varnish. Building this kit is easy, all you'll need is a bit (a lot!) of patience and neatness to build this lovely "stitch and glue" hull.
At last a building kit for a tender featuring solid stability, good performance under oar, a practical sailing rig and lovely lines. The Eastport Pram's deep rocker helps to minimize wetted surface and to keep the transoms from dragging. The result is a small boat that is as satisfying to row as possible in such a short waterline. Just like our Arwen, two rowing positions let you distribute the load to keep the hull flat on the water to optimize comfort and performance.
