The Greenshank is a pram version of the Redshank and has a length of 7’6’’ and a beam of 4’. The pram bow gives more space forward for stowing gear or for transporting crew out to your yacht. She is an ideal fishing dinghy. Construction is exactly the same as for the Redshank with mould shapes for clinker construction given on the drawings and the plank shapes for stitch and tape construction. Both boats may be built out of 4mm ply to keep weight right down to around 45 lbs. The 6mm ply versions weigh around 55 lbs.
