| Shearwater | Gannet | |||||||||
The smallest of what I call the Planing, or 'Elegant Tinny' Range. Shearwater like her sisters, Gannet, and Fulmar have flat planing bodies and wide transom, ideal for planing under sail in ideal conditions and planing under power with modest outboards and a load. |
Construction Options traditional plank, strip plank, cold moulded. |

Kim Brown built a stretched Gannet years ago (16') with a gaff cutter rig set up; sails nicely even well loaded and is very pretty. |
