STORNOWAY DINGHY
DESIGNS & PLANS
UP TO 13' LENGTH
We have 2 designs

see the GP Dinghies over 13' page :-
STORNOWAY 9
|

|
The
Stornoway 9 is the first of a new class of dinghies which incorporate firm
bilges and moderately full transoms needed to carry loads safely and to give
good sailing qualities without dragging a large transom through the water.
The plank shapes have been computer
generated for simple stitch and epoxy construction and to make her eye sweet,
she has 5 planks per side in addition to a narrow hog plank which greatly
simplifies construction. She uses 3 sheets of 6mm ply for her hull and the sail
rig can be added later. The bow shape can be
modified to suit but a traditional stem shape is shown on the drawings.
LOD 9’1‘‘(2.77m); Beam 4’2‘‘(1.26m);
Draft 6’’/2’6‘‘(.16/.76m); Sail Area 43 sq.ft(4 sq.m); Approx wht. 90
lb(41kg).

STORNOWAY 12
|
Second
in what will become a classic range of craft is the Stornoway 12. She has 6
planks per side giving her a lovely round hull. The standard drawings give the
plank shapes for stitch and epoxy construction but as with all our designs, we
can furnish the builder with mould shapes for clinker/ ply or strip planked
construction. The stitch and epoxy method is definitely the quicker and easier
method and will produce a strong lightweight hull.We have given her a high
peaked gaff rig which keeps the spar lengths down and which will not twist off
at the head in the same way as the lower peaked gaff rig.
She has plenty of internal space with side
benches and she can be built as either a rowing or a rowing/sailing craft and
would be ideal for family sailing. She will take the sprit or alternative lug
rigs of the Highlander 12 and could be fitted out with a fore deck area.
LOA 12’1’’ (3.67m); Beam 5’
(1.53m); Draft 6’’/3’3’’ (.16/1.0m); Sail Area 78 sq.ft. (7.3 sq.m);
Approx. wht. 135 lbs (61 kg).
Note - the plans now
include details for a gaff cutter rig with bowsprit.
