Lapstrake Dinghy Plans






John designed and built his first glued-lapstrake boat (rozinante, a 15’ light, fast rowboat) in 1987, and we have been designing and building glued-lapstrake boats together since 1990. for more than a decade, we ran our own shop building custom boats to our designs and those of others, including iain oughtred, doug hylan, and harry bryan..

Vintage, which is our name for the dinghy, is a round-bilge, lapstrake boat; she was designed in an era when most all round-bilge dinghies, and other small craft, were planked in that manner. it is of interest, and worth recording, that the wheel of time is again making popular small round-bilge, lapstrake motor and sailing boats..
