Fafnir
Designed by John Welsford
A 13 ft 1 in bluewater pocket cruiser for one or two, drawn after a customer asked for a very small yacht to attempt a non-stop circumnavigation in. Deep and heavily ballasted for her length at 650 kg dry with 250 kg of ballast, carrying 139 sq ft on a 6 ft 2 in beam and drawing 2 ft 7 in.
What building a Fafnir actually takes
Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
