Built in wood using the same method as the Puddle Pirate.


A mold has been made to reproduce these hulls using fiberglass cloth, polyester resin and gelcoat.


Four hulls have been layed up. One hull has been completed to the point deck sail that only sails have to be made.

The remaining hulls are now in other modelers hands as well as the mold to make additional hulls.
