HIGHLANDER 9'
|
Because most of our designs have their offsets and panel shapes stored on the computer, altering a particular design to suit a clients individual requirements of length, beam and draft, can be undertaken easily and quickly. The Highlander 9' is a good example of this and has been developed from the 10' Highlander for a client who needs a specific size of dinghy to fit on the coachroof of his yacht. The drawings consist of the construction plan and sail/rig plan of the Highlander 10 with a new drawing showing the hull panel, frame and transom shapes for this 9' x 4'6" version. 3 sheets of 6mm ply are used. |

HIGHLANDER 10'
|
The 10' Highlander uses 3 sheets of 6mm (1/4") ply and is considerably larger than it's smaller sister and is ideal for use as a general purpose tender or fishing boat. Her lug rig makes her ideal for teaching children to sail and her topsides are high enough to keep youngsters in and spray out! |

HIGHLANDER 11'

The
Highlander 11' Dinghy - this is a relatively new design with a beam of
5'2" and draft of 7"/3'1". Approx. weight is 105 lbs and
Sail Area is 66 sq.ft.
The hull shape very much follows the original Highlander model with it's double chine, except that, in this case, we have gone for a plumb bow and transom and we have carried the 'V' bottom right through to the stern. |

HIGHLANDER 12'
 
|
| Using just 4 sheets of
1/4" ply, the 12' Highlander is a lot of boat for it's material cost, and
with it's wide side benches and an easily handled sprit rig, it is an ideal
dinghy to teach children to sail or to simply potter about in. With
buoyancy fitted coastal dinghy cruising is a definite possibility with this
boat. One of these dinghies has done sterling service as a fishing boat for a
large teenage family and a tender for a yacht's stores and dog on the West Coast
of Scotland. Strip plank details are available for the Highlander 12' LOD 12', Beam 5', Sail Area 70 sq.ft., Approx. Wht. 120 lbs. |
