The Chester Yawl: rowing with classical elegance !
"Ready to row" version: The oustside of the hull is painted (you specify the color) and the inside is varnished, as well as the rubrail, transom and the "furniture": seat and foot brace. The Chester Yawl is built of Okoume marine plywood (very light) in 6 mm for the planking, 9 mm for the bulkheads and frames, as well as the floorboards, forward decking and aft seat, and 12 mm for the transom, breasthook, quarter knees and skeg. The rubrail is mahogany. Before finishing, the whole boat is saturated with 3 coats of epoxy, and the bottom planks receive a glassfiber/epoxy layer inside and out.
The Wherry is designed to be used with a sliding seat unit but it can also be rigged for fixed use, solo or double (ligth crews only in the latter case: 160 kg maximum.) The strong initial stability of this hull is a guarantee of safety to inexperienced rowers, and allows open sea sculling by fair wheater. The Annapolis Wherry measures 5,41 m par 0,97 m. The hull weight is 29 kg: no need for a boat trailer, it goes on a small car roof rack!
