Sailing characteristics will be very much like the well-proven Cape Cutter 19. These boats are very quick in light conditions, regularly passing boats that have a much faster image. This is not a planing hull but it is easily-driven and attains the 5.7 knot hull speed in moderate breeze on all headings. |

The gaff mast stands in a tabernacle mounted forward of the centreplate casing. The top of the casing is extended forward on a short longitudinal bulkhead to support it, with a pin rail arranged around the foot. The tabernacle is tall enough to allow the mast to fold down and rest on the aft deck when being raised or lowered. The bowsprit hinges on the sunken foredeck, which allows it to be used as a gin pole to assist when raising or lowering the mast. The main forestay attaches to the stemhead, not the bowsprit, both for strength and to make it easier to raise and lower the mast. Shroud chainplates are outboard, bolted against the outside of the hull. The rig is easily raised by two people without use of the bowsprit for leverage. |

Build Her in Plywood
Hull construction is plywood lapstrake over stringers and plywood backbone. Stringers are notched into the bulkheads and the backbone is locked into the bulkheads eggcrate-fashion. |
