Woodlark 13' Catboat
Description
The Woodlark 13′ Catboat is a **13-foot traditional-styled sailing catboat designed by British naval architect Paul Fisher of Selway-Fisher Design Ltd as a simple, family-friendly day sailer and beach cruiser that evokes classic American catboats in a compact package. It is typically built from strip-plank construction over chipboard molds using cedar or Douglas fir with epoxy, and plans for the boat have been offered to amateur builders rather than produced in a factory; as such, there isn’t a formal production count for numbers built, but it has been built by numerous home-builders from plans, with optional alternative rig and construction variants included. The Woodlark’s features include a round-bilge hull, steel centerplate for stiffness, a simple gaff cat rig with minimal lines, and optional clinker/ply construction or a small inboard engine/bilge keel setup for versatility.
