Table of Contents:
- Felucca, A new 16' x 7'3" x 1'1" gaff-rigged cruising sloop. This trailerable strip-composite boat goes together easily, and is one of the most exciting designs we've seen of late. From Phil Bolger
- Double Ended Sloop, This double-ended 16' gaff-rigged daysailer features traditional plank-on-frame construction. A fine project for experienced builders. From Paul Gartside
- Sea Hawk, This 15'6" outboard-powered plywood dory has clocked 15 knots when pushed by a 7 1/2 hp engine. Good looking, stable, and easily built. By Phil Bolger
- Small Gaff Sloop, An exotic 16' cold-molded beach cruiser. With a draft of 6", she'll take us to all the best coves and beaches. We'll row through the morning calm, sail on the afternoon sea breeze, and sleep in the pleasant cockpit. From Paul Gartside
- Periwinkl, A 24' power cruiser with auxiliary sailing rig. The easy-running shoal-draft hull should make 7 knots when pushed by 10 horsepower. By William Atkin
- Whaler Ketch, A 29' double-ended cruising ketch. Tight on accommodations, but fast and striking under sail, this "whaler" will grace any harbor. From Phil Bolger
Mike O'Brien's Boat Design Quarterly magazine describes plans for paddle, oar, power, and sail.
The boats come from the boards of Atkin, Benford, Bolger, Chapelle, Gillmer, Stambaugh, Stephens, and other leading designers.
Each issue of BDQ includes:
