The
Skylark 10, for her length, is a large dinghy and quite
capable of accommodating a family of 2 adults and 3 children
comfortably. Several 10's have been built by clients who
have a spare rig (Mirror etc) and who want a simple and
easily built hull to put it on. She takes 3 sheets of 1/4"
(6mm) ply (we used Exterior ply for ours) and most of the
materials can come from your local wood merchant. We have
developed the mould shapes for a strip plank version and
these are available at an additional charge of £10.
Many have been built as fishing dinghies and the Malta Sailing
School use a fleet for sail training. Beam is generous at
just under 5'.
