Note -
In the particulars for each design, the dry weight is given for guidance
only and will vary depending on the grade/density of plywood and solid
wood used - different thicknesses of ply are often used by builders and
the dry weight figure is based on the thinnest ply specified.
Also the Guidance Use comments are given in good faith and are based on

| 15' KESTRAL
PEAPOD
|
|
|
|
Kestral is a beautiful 15’ Peapod type craft with four planks per side. The
drawings give the plank shapes for simple stitch and epoxy construction but she
could either be strip planked or built using the clinker ply method. She would
make a very efficient rowing boat without the sail and she can carry 3 or 4
adults easily. For sailing we have given her a very simple sprit rig which can
be mounted and demounted quickly. She uses 6 sheets of 5 or 6mm plywood and half
a sheet of 12mm ply (for the sailing version). LOD 14’11’’ (4.53m); Beam 4’9’’
(1.47m); Hull depth amidships 1’6’’ (.45m); Approx. wht 150 lbs (68kg).
