New South Wales Sydney Vessels listed below this line have been sold or withdrawn from sale. Hull weight lb approx. This dinghy is a good example of Steve Redmond's 'Whisp' design. She is a fine-lined ultralight sharpie skiff. Her designer's key criteron was to produce a stable vessel that could be rowed, sailed, or powered, performing the functions of four boat types -- a canoe, a fishing boat, a rowing boat, and a sailing boat.

While this particular vessel has not been set up for sailing, she can perform all the other functions with ease. Along with the vessel herself, included in the sale are -- 4 oars, with leathers 4 ring rowlocks, 2 chocked 2 open rowlocks 1 life-jacket and there is even some touch-up paint for the scuffing on the bottom Note that with this vessel's light weight there is need for neither a road trailer nor for the use of a launching ramp.

NSW Taree Sail areas approx -- Main -- sq ft Mizzen -- 30 sq ft Spar lengths-- Mainmast -- 19'-6" Mizzen mast -- 12'-6" Main yard -- 11'-9" Main boom -- 11'-0" Mizzen boom -- 6'-0" Bumkin -- 6'-3" Mooltan is a fine example of Iain Oughtred's 'Fulmar' day-sailer design. She is rigged as a balanced-lug ketch with a sprit-boomed mizzen.

The mizzen is small and stepped right aft, so that Mooltan could be mistaken for a yawl at a distance. While the mainsail provides most of the drive, the mizzen both provides balance and acts as a very useful manouvering sail in tight places as, for example, around a boat ramp. Mooltan makes a fine, capacious launch when powered only by her outboard motor. Note that as a sailing dinghy she was not designed with rowing capability as a priority, and is not set up for that purpose.

She is however provided with regulation paddles in the unlikely event that both sailing rig and outboard become inoperable simultaneously. Acillary equipment includes -- Registered road trailer Outboard motor 2hp 4-stroke Honda Electric bilge pump Danforth-style anchor Chain rode Nylon mooring warp Two 4' aluminium-shaft canoe paddles PFDs -- 2 adult, 1 child Sail bag Complete set of design drawings Mooltan is a genuinely beautiful sailing vessel that rightly won the People's Choice Award at the Inverloch Classic Wooden Dinghy Regatta.

Vic Gippsland Coast This sea kayak is the second made by this builder to the design of Nick Schade's 'Night Heron'. This is the "high deck" version of the design, which allows the paddler a little more room under the foredeck. This vessel is of hybrid construction -- that is, the hull is of marine ply, while the deck is strip-built in cedar and balsa.

This combination makes for both a rugged, lightweight, and beautiful design. The lines of this kayak are somewhat after those of the vessels used by the Inuit people of Greenland and Northern America, which have a raised bow and stern to provide trapped-air buoyancy in rough seas. Unlike those traditional kayaks though, both ends of this vessel are in fact airtight, the spaces under both the afterdeck and the forward end of the foredeck being completely sealed.

An access hatch to storage under the afterdeck is provided behind the paddler's seat. This is a very stable boat that tracks well and can be pushed quickly through the water, while still being readily manouverable owing to having some slight rocker in the keel.

To assist further with steering in rough seas, the builder has also provided a pedal-operated rudder. The rudder provides some minor lateral stability as well as steering assistance, adding a further 8" to the draft. Note that the entire steering sytem -- rudder, stock, yoke, tiller lines, and pedals -- can be removed if desired, leaving the streamlining of the underbody unmarred, and with only the stainless steel rudder trunk left in situ through the hull.

Ancillary equipment includes a feathered carbon fibre wing paddle in carry-bag , a spray apron, and closed-cell foam seat cushions. NSW Central Coast Hull weight lb The 'Mole' design was named after that friendly creature in Kenneth Grahame's 'The Wind In The Willows', who found such delight in discovering the joys of messing about in boats.

With plans by the well-known Australian-born designer Iain Oughtred, the 'Mole's' design is based on that of a typical Thames skiff. But her size was especially chosen to be a few feet shorter than the traditional 20'' skiff to allow her to be both easily handled by one person while quite capable of carrying three, and also to allow of car-topping if necessary.

Construction is glued clinker ply, for which Oughtred's designs are famous. NSW Blue Mountains These are two almost-identical historic kayaks. Note that while both vessels are offered here as one lot at the price shown, the owner would consider selling them individually if requested. NSW Mt Pleasant A dinghy with a history, Ocean Light gets her name from the movie in which she featured.

QLD Southport Only a few years old, this lovely dinghy is a beautiful example of the Nova Scotian designer Simon Watts' 'Sea Urchin' tender -- a very pretty rowing dinghy and potentially an excellent tender for a larger cruising vessel. This is the day-boat for the 21st Century. She can, if desired, be sailed or motored directly on to a beach, where she runs up on her keel and bilge skids SAFETY Safety has been paramount in the design of this vessel, and she has been CE Certified for winds to Force 6 and significant wave heights to over six feet..

QLD Brisbane LOA'-0" Beam" Depth" at mid-length This traditional Canadian canoe is one of the nicest cold-moulded canoes to be seen. She is thought to be to the 'Trout' design that was imported to the UK by Tyne Folding Boats, and we show a "Tyne' catalogue entry accordingly. Note that this particular vessel is not a Tyne import, however.

VIC South Yarra The original design brief he wrote for the first of his fleet was to produce a daysailer, capable of being trailed, stable, safe, but able to give an experienced sailor a lively and exciting sail.

Her ancillary equipment comprises-- 9 hp Yamaha outboard, low hours, with remote fuel tank One pair of oars, stowed under the side decks when not in use Three bronze rowlocks, one each side amidships for rowing and one on the transom for sculling Four PFD1 life-jackets Heavy and light danforth-type anchors, with chain and rope warps Manual bilge pump Deck-mounted Wooden Boat Building Tasmania 50 Plastimo steering compass Sun awning Storage chocks to support rudder and all spars inside the hull for towing Storage cover Boeing trailer with spare wheel This is a lovely vessel in very good condition -- a perfect day-sailer.

Jabiru is now fitted out as a gentleman's bluewater cruiser. She was designed by well-known Auckland boat-builder Roy Parris in the s, built by a former apprentice of Parris, and first launched only for these photographs to be taken.

Construction is of 4 mm kauri marine ply planking on kauri frames, epoxy-glued and clench-fastened with bronze nails. The keelson, stem timbers, and gunwales are also all kauri.

Having been launched in the Tamar River, she has spent almost her whole life in Tasmania, although she had a short sojourn on the Gippsland Lakes. Her present owners have been her trustees for the last five years.

Tasmania Tamar R. Spray was originally given to Slocum as a derelict, having been "propped up in a field" for seven years. She was rebuilt by him to his own design, essentially from the ground up, before he set out on his epic three-year voyage. He published an account of his adventures, "Sailing Alone Around the World," in Slocum and his circumnavigation inspired many later sailors, and his sloop a host of new vessels called Spray.

Despite sharing the same name, however, very few of these later boats owe much if anything to the design of Slocum's original Spray. In addition, she contains-- A two-burner stove with Chef Ranger oven Two refrigerators Pressurised hot and cold water to galley and head An electric head On-deck equipment includes-- Safety equipment in excess of Commercial 1E requirements Three bilge pumps--one engine-driven, one 12V, and one manual in addition to the head and galley bilge pumps.

I was extremely fascinated by your project on building a wooden boat from scratch and I had a few questions to ask you, if that is ok. First off I should say this inspired me to take on this challenge myself and also to write about this process for my A level Use of Maths Course work.

The first question I would like to ask is roughly how long did each of the steps take to complete the job and overall how long did the job take. This will help me understand and write about the time scale of the job at hand, which is one of the tasks I need to complete. Secondly how many workers did it take to complete the job. Reply 3 years ago. Hi and thanks for the questions. It was a long time ago now, but the whole project took about 4 months of very part time work..

In planning the boat I found some great resources for boat building. One thing I didn't calculate well on this boat was the buoyancy.. Also If you don't have one already I'd recommend a planimeter. I got a cheap vintage one on eBay now and it works well. Hi I used a number of references.. I strongly recommend it. Small Boat Design and Construction. Hi I'm sorry this is so late..

Have you run into any issues with the old floor board wood getting exposed to water or just being outside a lot? Nice looking boat too. Reply 8 years ago on Introduction. Thanks for the comment. I got the floor boards from a few places. We did a recent renovation to our house so the majority came from that project.

Some were new off cuts but the majority were old. I also got some timber from new house being built across the road. Being old the wood was very dry and stable.. They have performed well- But I dont think water has ever touched them because they are encased in epoxy which keeps them in their own micro environment.

The timber for the keel and seats was purchased. Wow, the living room! That is a family affair. Glad you didn't have the old built-it-and-can't-get-it-out-the-door problem some have. That was a cleaning nightmare. I cannot imagine what your wife put up with. How much could you sell a boat like that for?
