Truant

Designed by John Welsford

An 11 ft 6 in sailing dinghy drawn for stability, beamy at 5 ft 4 in for her length so she stands up to her 80 sq ft without drama. About 70 kg, and meant to be the boat somebody learns on and then keeps.

What building a Truant 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.
