Wooden Ships Comments on this Chamberlain Dory Rowing Skiff
Professionally built in 2020 to the lines of a Chamberlain Dory Skiff from John Gardner, as seen in his book Building Classic Small Craft.
The builder stretched the length slightly to gain more leg room for rowing but kept the same beam to create a slippery rowing boat that is still nice and stable.
Professional quality build and finish, she has recently had a fresh paint and varnish job so she is ready for her new owners. Comes with a launching trolley.
Length 15’
Beam 4’
Construction
