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 boat sailing dinghy for teaching your young sailors or messing about when the large boat is lying at anchor for boat.
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 for boat and boat 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 marine 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.
