12' White/Herreshoff Catspaw Sailing Dinghy (2020) - MS. ANNABELLE

12’9″ Catspaw sail and row dinghy. Perfect for a family of four who want to day sail or for those looking to camp sail. The boat is built for rocky shore lines and is light enough that two people can easily beach the boat. Mast and sprit can be stored in the boat.
The boat is a modified design of N.G. Herreshoff’s dinghy that was used as a tender boat for the 1899 America’s Cup Columbia,

Ms. Annabelle is made of cedar planking, oak ribs and keel and mahogany trim. The hull is covered with epoxy glass. She was constructed in a common residential garage using common hand tools, hand power tools, table saw, planar and band saw. My friend Bill Reardon of Reardon Boat works, provided the expertises.

Plans for this boat can be obtained from WoodenBoat Store “How to Build the Catspaw Dinghy.
