Waterboy Open Canoe 12' 9"
Plans
$72 England & EU
$61 USA/Elsewhere 

This canoe is based upon our Waterman 13 which has been given a larger capacity by introducing tumblehome into the topsides and giving her a little more depth—(14”/0.355m) - this makes her excellent for carrying larger loads on a short length and for open canoe sailing. She has 5 planks per side giving her a well rounded and attractive shape.
