Wooden Ships Comments on this Andrew Wolstenholme Coot

Known as a Coot, designed by Andrew Wolstenholme and built by the first owner in 2015.  Evidently a very well built boat by an enthusiastic and skilled amateur.

The Coot has a very pretty clinker hull of traditional appearance with a near-vertical stem filling out amidships to firm, round bilges before tucking up to a sweet little transom.  The Cat rig balances beautifully for very enjoyable single handed sailing, however there is enough space, stability and buoyancy to carry crew.

She has 2 rowing positions and due to the placing of the mast, the bow rower can work the oars with the mast still in place, a small feature making this a very practical family boat for messing about on the water.

Complete with a heavy duty cover and combination piggy back road trailer and launching trolley, this is a complete package in tidy condition and ready to tow away.
