We generally sail Avocet, Curlew and Shearwater without outriggers in summer and on inland waters. In winter and on the sea we often use outriggers.

Outriggers  can almost eliminate the possibility of accidental capsize and make it much easier to re-enter the boat from the water. If capsize recovery is likely to be a problem or if the consequences of failing to recover from a capsize are likely to be serious, outriggers should be considered.

 

We are no longer offering the popular Lark as it has been superseded by the Avocet.

 

As well as our 2008 range we can supply:             

  • Custom built boats in clinker ply or strip plank

  • Rigs and information for you to rig your own boat

  • A rig for your own canoe

 

We can produce one-off designs for boats or rigs for anyone who can't find exactly what they want
