EXE DORY

Looking for an enjoyable way to exercise, and a pleasurable few weekends working with your hands? If so, then the 14ft. EXE DORY will certainly meet your requirements. Very simple in construction, using the stitch and tape method to produce a strong and lightweight hull, she has been specifically designed as a single handed training/exercise craft. The 14ft. EXE DORY is light enough to be taken off and onto the roof of a car and, with it’s removable trolley, transported to the water, by one person. With a length of 14ft. and with her two additional seats, she is also ideal for 2/3 to go fishing in. Buoyancy is built-in at each end for safety. Construction is a delight with no arkward shaping or heavily twisted panels - or time consuming framework. Building time is approximately 45 hours.

DOCAT

based upon two EXE DORY hulls, this nippy little catarmaran makes the ideal beach boat and swimming platform for the family. Existing EXE DORIES can be converted and the whole catarmaran is demountable for easy transport. So, instead of having a catarmaran, you in fact have, an exciting beachboat/catarmaran converting to two rowing/training dories. Construction for the hulls is the same as that for the EXE DORIES using simple stitch and tape techniques. Each 14’ dory requires three sheets of 1/4’’ plywood and weighs approximately 70 lbs. The DOCAT has a sail area of 70 sq.ft. and uses a similar sail plan to that of the Highlander 12. However, if you have a spare rig from a similar sized boat, this could also be incorporated. The beam of a 14’ EXE hull is 3’11’’ across the gunwale and 2’ across the chine.
