Calico Skiff

Calico Skiff

The 9’6” Calico is a skiff that does it all - motor, sail and row. It utilizes our trademark Skiff-kit construction and is a stable, capable craft.

Echo Bay Dory Skiff

Echo Bay Dory Skiff

Difficulty Level: Easy - great first time build

Our most popular kit, the 12-foot Echo Bay Dory Skiff combines the spirit and versatility of a traditional dory with the performance of a small sailing dinghy.

Caravelle Skiff / 14'

Caravelle Skiff / 14'

Difficulty Level: Easy

The Caravelle Skiff shares many features with her smaller sibling, the Echo Bay Dory Skiff. She is stable, seaworthy and rows well.

Goat Island Skiff / 16'

Goat Island Skiff / 16'

Difficulty Level: Easy - great first time build

Where does one start about the Goat Island Skiff? I became attracted to the GIS because of its simplicity and focus on performance. Designed by Michael Storer.

Deblois St. Dory / 18'

Deblois St. Dory / 18'

Difficulty Level: Advanced Beginner

The Deblois Street Dory is the ultimate sail-and-oar boat. It takes the classic lines of the Swampscott and provides a more stable, fast underbody. With enough capacity for two and gear, the DSD makes a great cruising boat especially for island hopping.

Deer Isle Koster "KDI" / 14'

Deer Isle Koster "KDI" / 14'

Difficulty Level: Adv. Beginner

Affectionately known as the KDI, this beauty is the refined, kit version of Bruce Elfstrom's original KDI's. Decked, fast, and beautiful!

Calendar Islands 16

Calendar Islands 16

Difficulty Level: Adv. Beginner

"Practically builds itself" is a quote from the first of what will be many articles on this quintessential sail-and-oar craft. Oriented mostly for sailing it also rows great. Light enough to roll up onto the beach and singlehand, it will be an easy fun boat to build and own. Several rig variations available.

Calendar Islands 18'

Calendar Islands 18'

Difficulty level: Intermediate build

The newest and largest of the sail-and-oar / open, daysailer line-up. The CI-18 is a total head turner and has an enormous seating area inside. Comes as a yawl or a ketch!

Nautilus Sailing Dory

Nautilus Sailing Dory

Availability: Full kit release slated for late 2025

The new Nautilus Sailing Dory is the result of our work to merge all the best attributes of our other dory projects, including the larger Deblois St. Dory and the smaller Nautilus Rowing Dory, as well as our collaboration with Vivier on the Doris. The Nautilus Sailing Dory is very similar to the Doris with a more refined hull shape for sail-and-oar boating and our trademark Tab-n-Lock System which negates any need for a building strongback and temporary molds.
