I wanted a portable sailing dinghy that would be quick to rig, car toppable, and would double as a kayak (in fact a double kayak). This is the first video in the series where I document the build.

The boat was designed for the choppy conditions on Port Phillip bay, and is a hybrid of the Sabre and the Viola sailing canoe (by Michael Storer), but is built in the style of the Huntington Harbour Kayak (by Spira boats). I also took some advice from the helpful experts at The Wooden Boat Forum.
