PETE is a lovely 4 planked
canoe (4 per side) on similar lines to our Little Kate design
for stitch and tape or stitch and epoxy construction. She
has classic lines and uses just 3 sheets of 4, 5 or 6mm ply
and depending on how she is fitted out she will weigh approximately
65 lbs.
The example above is by Martin Padbury.
sailing with a rig similar to the Prospector rig.
The drawings show an optional
gunter sail plan with details of the leeboard and rudder.
Length 15’6’’ (4.7m); Beam 36’’
(0.92m); Depth amidships 13’’ (0.33m).
