The Skiff whilst having the same
overall length as the Scaffie has less beam making a superb sailing craft whichh is also
ideal for rowing.
An all up weight of only 160kg means the Skiff is easy to tow, easy to
launch and easy to recover. When the wind drops the Skiff is light enough to be easily
rowed or she can be motored using a mere 1.5kw of engine power.
A sloop rig utilising and a standing lug mainsail, loose footed for
safety, give the Skiff all the performance one could want from a boat designed to be
enjoyed by all the family.
As with all the boats in the Drascombe range, the Skiff has sufficient
boyancy, built in, to support the crew in the water. This ensures that a spirited lively
boat as the Skiff will provide excitement whilst retaining the safety of a Drascombe.
The attention to detail and the quality of workmanship places the Skiff
firmly in the Drascombe family. |
