Here's a handy boat that can be rowed, sailed, and powered with up to three large adults, and it "nests" to take up less space.
Length: 3.53 m, Beam: 1.42 m, Weight: 41 kg.
The Passagemaker Dinghy is easy to build but looks great and performs beautifully. A smooth glide when rowing, spirited performance when sailing, and steady handling with an outboard mark this latest entry in our fleet of graceful build-it-yourself boat kits.
This is the perfect dinghy for folks with larger boats. Are you tired of moving heavy, traditional dinghies that weigh 100 kg, or struggling with a limp, awkward inflatable that can't be rowed or sailed? Chesapeake Light Craft designer John C. Harris has drawn an elegant, Norwegian-styled pram that weighs only 90lbs, but can survive real abuse in the dinghy park. With a 650-pound payload, the Passagemaker can haul the entire crew in one go, or ferry blocks of ice and jerrycans of drinking water from the quayside to the mothership. The sailing rig components store flat inside the 3.53 m hull; fasten three shrouds and the mainsheet, hoist up the mainsail and jib, and you've got a fast, fun, stable sailing dinghy that will please even the most ardent and discriminating sailing enthusiast. If you have a long harbor to cross, a 2, 3, or 4 horsepower outboard will drive the Passagemaker to harbor speed limits and beyond. An electric outboard for fishing lakes will work great, too. If you don't want to lug around an outboard and smelly gas, you'll be delighted to discover how well the Passagemaker rows: there's plenty of rocker for low wetted surface and the transom won't drag in the water to slow you down.

Laïta is inspired by the Norwegian prames which, because of their nautical qualities, were spread in the whole world like boats of ships, then like small boats of pleasure at the beginning of the 20th century.
Near to a small light sailing dinghy by its behavior and its performances, it makes it possible to lower the mast and to sail with the oar when the wind misses. The forms carrying prame, the possibility of taking laugh in the sail make of it also a sure, ideal boat for young people or children. Its behavior with the sea is healthy with all the paces. Its walk is remarkable out of sheltered water

This Lightweight rowing skiff is specifically designed for sliding seat rowing, yet also can be sailed or fixed-seat rowed. Built of a double liner for stiffness, the Heritage 12 has enormous flotation; enough to be filled with water and still float 2 to the adults. Patented fold-in riggers hold the sculling oarlocks out to the correct width, but fold in for docking. There is also a built in option to move the rower to the bow to balance the weight of a passenger.

Jimmy Skiff : three boats for the price of one! Indeed, this little bare simple sailer is also an excellent rowing boat as well as a light tender... for when you'll have the main boat. Before the advent of the outboard motor, rowing/sailing skiffs were common on the US shoreline, and especially in the Chesapaeke Bay. They were used for crabbing, fishing, transporting goods, and enjoying summer evenings with a friend. Many local kids could row their dad's skiff long before they could ride a bicycle. Proper rowing and sailing skiffs are extraordinarily rare these days.

The Skerry is one of the few rowing hulls which are not "spoiled" by the required installations to make it an excellent sailboat. It is the boat for long treks: sailing when the wind is good, rowing when not. In both cases, you'll be going far and fast! The sprit rig is easy to set and to use, powerful for its size, and all the spars are short enough to be stowed without hampering rowing. The hull is stable and offers sufficient of buoyancy to face a good chop with 3 adults on board. Two rowing stations allow several crew combinations while under oar, always keeping the best hull balance for optimum handling. The Skerry is 15 ft long (4,58 m) by 1,37 m, with a draft of only 13 cm (76 cm with the board down). The sail area is 5,40 m2 (a larger sail, 5,70 m2, is available as an option). The hull weight is 45 kg: no problem to carry it on the small car roof rack!

Tradition does not exclude modernity. Minahouët is conceived to be accessible to a greater number of manufacturers by means of a kit containing plywood cut out on numerical machine. Gauges imbricating itself one in another make it possible to assemble as of the first day a mannequin of a high degree of accuracy. The parts of plywood, including bordered with covering joint are delivered in near total to the exact dimension and do not require any fitting: good-bye doubts and interrogations of the tracing and squarings. Epoxy resin, though used with moderation, gives longevity and weak maintenance. In finale the massive wood completions make forget the recourse to materials and techniques modern.

An easily trailerable boat, the Whitehall Spirit 17 Expedition is perfect as a classic daysailer, or health-giving exercise rowing machine.

The beautiful Sitka spruce mast is sleeved to break into two parts for stowing on board allowing for a clean rowing set up. A solid bronze centerboard and teak kick up rudder enhance it's shallow water abilities.
Easily handled by one, there is the option of up to three rowers in a traditional rowing configuration, or one or two rowers in the slide seat configuration which features hinged bronze outriggers and 9'6"sculls to achieve a top rowing speed of over 5 knots, with an easy, smooth stroke.

This attractive classic is a favorite yacht tender for trawlers and sailboats because it easily carries three as a rowboat and sails very well in sailing mode. Its finish complements the finest yachts.
The Minto is fitted with a “salty” standing lug sail rig, the preferred rig for a small row boat for a variety of reasons. The large sail area possible on a low mast reduces the heeling moment of the boat (tendency to tip) without sacrificing performance. This rig is fast and easy to set up. Unlike a “dipping lug” it can be tacked without lowering the yard and shifting it from one side of the mast to the other. The mast requires no stays or wires and simply lifts out to stow within the boat.
When the rudder is removed a small outboard can be carried on the transom and the boat handles very well under power.
It’s L.O.A. is 9’1” or 2.75m and B.O.A. 50” or 1.28m and weighs 160 lbs or 73k.
These boats are built to impeccable standards featuring a lapstrake style fiberglas hull, solid teak woodwork and bronze fittings with varnished Sitka spruce mast and spars and sails by U.K. sailmakers. Many are carried on trawler yachts and sailboats as tenders and sailing dinghies. They will handle choppy harbour conditions are built to last generations.

This sprightly little sailing dinghy is a throwback to the days when a sailboat wasn't a sailboat unless it had at least two sails, no matter its size. Yet, here is the sloop rigged Tribute with modern lines, produced of contemporary materials and methods.
Its modest dimensions (13'2" length) belie its capacity for sailboat fun. This is a sailboat that was designed to be easily sailed by one person but will carry up to 3. The Tribute has a generously sized cockpit with molded in fore and aft seating. All corners and edges are rounded for maximum comfort.
The Tribute comes standard with these features:
Harken blocks and fittings
Roller furling jib
Loose footed main sail
Molded in mast well
Cockpit drain with plug
Swing-up rudder with tiller extension (hiking stick)
Rotationally molded dagger board
Molded in transom handles and bow cross hole

For 40 years the CL16 has been depended on by sailors who needed a stable dinghy with the options and support to enjoy casual racing. Many of those sailors who bought their first 16 many years ago still enjoy the boat today and look back on great memories. After this much time in the boat they cannot be wrong.
However, times have changed and the ever versatile 16 surges ahead with the latest refinements in sailing technology. In 2005 the CL16 began offering available KEVLAR reinforcing and CARBON FIBRE spar upgrade packages to compliment the planning and responsive hull. You can share the smile with up to 4 adults in comfort. Even 6 aboard is not uncommon. Take the family out for a relaxing Day sail or an adrenalin pumping afternoon.
Built to last and backed by a history that proves it. The 16 is the best sailing dinghy to share the moments with. When will your memories begin?
