Wooden Ships Comments on this 16′ rowing boat
Built by L.H. Walker of Westcliff on Sea, Essex in the late 1960’s as a river rowing boat. She has had a mast added in recent years along with a sail and rudder but will need a leeboard fitting in order to sail properly. She is however an excellent rowing boat and will take an outboard engine as well. The generous beam and the shape of the hull mean she is a stable and comfortable boat with a decent carrying capacity, excellent for family river trips.
