| Old Wharf Dory, built 2009 |
| On the shore of Gull Pond, after sea trials. |
| The Old Wharf Dory is a modern version of the Grand Banks fishing dory, well suited for
rowing along shore. I developed the lines by combining and refining the lines from the
16 Lowell Coast Guard dory and Phil Bolgers Gloucester Gull. The length over all is 156,
the same as the gull and the Lowell dory. Beam, both overall and on the bottom, is 6 wider
than the Gull, giving the boat much more initial stability than the Gull. Depth amidship is
right between the two, giving the boat a more lively sheer than the Lowell dory. Transom width
is also between the two.
LOA - 156, Beam - 4,6, weight approximately 150 Lbs.
Materials used include : LLoyds approved 9 mm Okoume marine plywoos for the bottom and
topsides , Sapele marine ply for the transom, Locust transom framing, midship framing, stem,
breasthook, oarlock blocks. Exterior and insude bottom sheathed with Dynel cloth and
MAS epoxy, and painted with Epiphanes Marine enamel. Interior oiled, botton non-skid.
Price includes a pair of Shaw & Tenney 8 spruce oars with leathers. All bronze hardware.
Here is a link to a video of the sea trials on You Tube.
Price, $6,000.00 |

| Pirogue |

| I built this pirogue in 2003 using lines from Cajun Secret, a web site no longer available. Materials used were Okoume ply for the hull, red cedar stems, composite chines, 4 oz. cloth & epoxy outside, epoxy & Dynel on the inside bottom. Spruce for the rail system, white cedar breasthooks. Pettit Easypoxy paint on the exterior, varnished interior with latex non skid on the bottom. Oiled rails and breasthooks. Woven cane canoe seats, and a remote anchoring sprit complete this little beauty. Very nice on a quiet pond, excellent for fishing in the weeds.
LOA - 13'5"
beam - 36"
depth - 9"
weight - 57 lbs.
Price - $800.00 |
