18’ GOOD LITTLE

SKIFF, WITH

TRAILER

ONLY $1,600

This is an 18-foot version of Pete Culler's Good Little Skiff, built in traditional lapstrake style with cedar planks riveted over mahogany frames. Seats and thwarts are spruce, with mahogany trim, finished in oil. The bottom is cross-planked in African mahogany.

This boat was built in 1978 by professional boatbuilder Steven Webster of Newport, Oregon. The skiff has three rowing stations, a centerboard and a rudder, but no sailing rig. Oarlocks are included and professionally handmade Culler-style spruce oars can be purchased separately, if so desired.

The boat comes with a galvanized trailer, equipped with newer tires in excellent condition. This beautiful skiff was recently professionally maintained and is ready to use today. It is a joy to row and a true classic from Captain Pete Culler's designs.

Price, $1600

ATKIN-DESIGNED

VALGERDA:

18’-7” OF

SCANDINAVIAN-INSPIRED

BEAUTY - $4000

Saga, the Valgerda design by William Atkin is 18'-7" overall with 14'-9" on her waterline and a 5'-8" beam. She has a double chine hull and weighs about 600 pounds. As a modification to the original design, Saga is half-decked. The balanced lug sail is 110 sq.ft. with a new, custom, professionally-made sail of Tanbark cloth.

It comes on a heavy-duty galvanized (driftboat) trailer with new tires and a spare. The stayed mast and boom are spruce. A white jib and a 3.5 four-stroke Tohatsu motor, two years old, with approximately 100 hours on it, also come with it. It also has a new heavy-duty vinyl boat cover / boom tent.

This faering was built by Keeler Boat Building; Portland, Oregon in 1966 for the Weyerhaeuser family. It is of traditional lapstrake construction using MDO plywood. She's a very stout boat and has made two tours of the San Juan and Gulf Islands under her current owner, who can attest that this vessel can take anything and is happiest under sail-and-oar.

Details on the Doryman weblog.

Asking $4000, OBO.

BANGOR PACKET ROWING WHERRY

(New, $5,900 at the Boat School)

 

The Joel White-designed Bangor Packet, a sliding seat rowing wherry, was built in Instructor Bruce Blatchley's Contemporary (wood composite) course at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding.  

 

The Bangor Packet is 20 feet long with a beam of 25 inches. It comes complete with sliding seat and custom spruce oars. The boat's weight, with sliding seat and gear (not including oars) is 50 pounds. The seat, outriggers and custom spruce oars go with the boat. You'll need to provide a trailer if you are so inclined, but we have a set of rooftop racks we use to transport the boat and don't find a trailer to be necessary.

 

Nicknamed "the yellow rocket" by students at the School, this boat was cold molded of three layers of mahogany and western red cedar veneers. It is a relatively light weight rowing wherry designed for one person. It excels in choppy water, slicing through small waves and swells at speed. It is a very nearly perfect rowing machine. While it is not the slender knife-edge type rowing shell used on rivers, for example, it is stable and supportive of novice rowers and a good boat for those with intermediate skills as well even on relatively open waters. You probably will want to use this boat for a loooong time!

For details, or to see the boat, contact the Boat School at info@nwboatschool.org or call (360) 385-4948.

MISTRAL, A LARGER

POCKET YACHT, BUT

TRAILERABLE! - $15,000

Mistral is a 36-foot cruising dory live-aboard designed and built by owner Michael Bogoger of Newport, Oregon. The boat is a marconi-rigged marine plywood dory design sheathed in fiberglass with a hinged mast set in a tabernacle for easy transport. She has a beam of just over ten feet and displaces approximately five tons.

Mistral is a comfortable live-aboard and can sleep four in luxury. She has a fixed head, a tub / shower and a wood stove. Her galley is equipped with a propane stove-top, hot water tank, refrigerator and sink.

She was built with professional loving care by her owner. The custom made sails are new, in excellent condition and the boat has been kept in perfect condition, ready to use today. Mistral is powered by an efficient 9.9 four-stoke Mercury Sailpower outboard in a motor well which pushes her, at hull speed, at a very respectable 1/3 gallons + per hour.

She is a shallow draft cruiser, drawing only 2.5 feet, with a full-length fixed-keel. Designed to be perfect for cruising and living on full-time on the Salish Sea.

Personal finances force sale at the special price of $15,000, negotiable. Currently moored on the Yaquina river on the central Oregon coast.

Custom built three axle trailer and transport available at a very reasonable cost. I hope to find someone who will love this boat as I have.

16’ Devlin-Designed/Built Eider,

Turnkey Pocket Cruiser - $9500

Eider was designed and built by Sam Devlin in 1981. She was constructed in Sam’s usual high quality marine ply, epoxy and glass, tack and tape method. She measures 16’ LOD,

6.5 ft. beam, 2 ft. draft, and 1600 lbs. displacement. She is rigged as a as an unstayed spritsail cutter with staysl and flying jib on a short bowsprit, approximately. 150 sq.ft. in sail area. The main and staysl are tanbark. The mainsl brails up and the headsls are on roller furlers for easy singlehanding. All sails were made by Carol Hasse.

Eider has a shoal draft full keel with poured concrete and steel internal ballast. Her cabin has sitting headroom, a solid fuel cabin stove and berths for two. In 2010 we added a sliding pilothouse hatch that allows her to be steered from below where it’s warm and dry. She also has legs for beaching or wandering about the mudflats. She has a 5 hp Mariner outboard and a sculling oar for alternative propulsion or pleasant exercise on a calm morning. She’s easily trailered and kept beside our home in Port Townsend, WA. We purchased her in the summer of 2007.   Since then, we have cruised several times through the San Juans and Gulf Islands of BC, and in April of 2009, to Catalina Island. We have also proudly displayed her at the Port Townsend, Lake Union and Toledo, OR Wooden Boat Festivals. She has appeared in the Old Gaffer’s Association Quarterly, The Doryman Blog, in the July/Aug 2009 issue of Small Craft Advisor and again on the cover of their July/Aug issue in 2010, just as we returned from a cruise of Queen Charlotte Strait and the Broughton Islands at the NW end of Vancouver Island. People fall in love with Eider where ever she drops her hook.

We’ve just repurchased our old Crotch Island Pinky project boat from Marty, which will need a rebuild, and we don’t have room in our yard for two boats, so we’re reluctantly offering up our dear Eider now.

If you’ve dreamed of owning and sailing the perfect little “microcruiser”, this is your chance!!
