The Caledonia Yawl was built by Ian Oughtred for construction in glued lapstrake marine plywood, and is just one of his most common models. (The boat in the fast foreground is the Paul Gartside-built motor-cruiser JENNIFER).

We constructed this boat, one of two so considerably, for Camp 4 Winds/Westward Ho on Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands in Washington Point out. www.fourwindscamp.org/

It is 19′ 6″ extended with a beam of 6′ 1″. She’ll attract about 11 inches with the centerboard up and 3′ 6″ with the centerboard down. The boat weighs about 350 pounds in its “as-intended” configuration, and can simply be personalized to an owner’s needs. It can be developed as a sloop (just one mast) or yawl (two masts).

Oughtred’s ebook, Clinker Plywood Boatbuilding Guide describes his strategies for constructing these beautiful, functional boats. When his approaches vary a bit from ours, the two generate superlative results. www.amazon.com/Clinker-Plywood-Boatbuilding-Guide-Oughtr…

Nic Compton’s biography of Ian Oughtred, A Daily life in boats, captures this elaborate, enigmatic designer. www.woodenboatstore.com/product/325-144

” Late at evening, out in the workshop, builder’s of Iain’s boats have generally admitted to feelings of invisible enterprise, of currently being aspect of anything much even larger a strong sense that in the act of functioning with such attractiveness they much too have come to be aspect of that wonderful pantheon of boatbuilders. -Robert Ayliffe, founder, Duck Flat Picket Boats
