Taking around 35 hours to build, the WATCH BELL 2.3 Pram Dinghy is a great little boat that was very popular as our production boat about 10 years ago. 

Although this kit is for the rowing or motor versions, she can also be converted to sail and has plenty of room inside for a boat of this size, ideal for learning to sail. It has a slight "V" bottom which helps deal with choppier water and directional stability when rowing.

The design of these boats allows you to build you a boat with more room and and better stablility for it's size than a stem dinghy.

And it can be carried on the roof rack of the average family car!
The hull is built using the "Clinker Ply/Stitch & Tape" method of construction which gives a more traditional looking boat. You will receive the mould/centre frame.
The kit is supplied in a quality marine plywood with a 6mm planks, 12mm transoms and 6mm framed centre bulkhead and the wood for the seats and trim and and a 5m mooring rope with a cleat.
The boat can be built as our standard rowing dinghy or you can add an electric motor or lightweight 1hp petrol outboard, or add a sailing rig.
