This Dory is built following the Newfoundland tradition of inshore Atlantic fishing craft – making it a very stable and safe family boat, including two built-in watertight flotation compartments, fore and aft.

Constructed of heavy-duty marine plywood with hardwood trim and strengthening pieces to gunwales, thwarts, deck-boards and braces.

Pine mast, spars and lugsail designed for downwind sailing. A deep removable rudder with hinged fin will give good steerage.

Four brass rowlocks allow rowing from either seat. Unknown year of build, but assumed mid 1990s – mid 2000s
