Calkins
Sailboat Plans
Here are some small
traditional sailboats designed by George Calkins. They all sail exceptionally well and are easily rowed when
the wind is fickle. The larger designs lend well to double rowing with
two rowing stations. With plenty of room to pack some gear these
seaworthy boats are well suited for beach camp cruising. We’ve made
some wonderful camp trips exploring the San Juan Islands in our 17’
Salmon Wherry. The seaworthiness of these traditional designs is
something to behold when the wind pipes-up and conditions deteriorate.
The amount of
building details for these designs varies.
Read the descriptions to see what is available. No instructions
are included. The builder should have intermediate knowledge and skills
of wooden boat construction.
If
you are interested in building either the 17’ or 19’ wherry from the
lines available then you should purchase the 15 ½” wherry plans for
complete construction details.
