Mollyhawk

Designed by John Welsford

Seagull stretched to 17 ft 6 in for open-water rowing, with a sliding seat option drawn in. Same 4 ft 1 in beam and about 42 kg, so the extra length is all waterline rather than weight.

What building a Mollyhawk 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.
