Scout 14

Designed by Brandon Davis

The Scout stretched to 14 ft, with the same layout as the 10 footer and room for a family. It rows easily, sails well and has even more dry storage under the deck, so it works as a beach boat and a camp cruiser. Beam is 51 in, draft about 4 in, and the bare hull weighs around 95 lb.

Kit Boats Co. sells it as a CNC-cut plywood kit with the rudder and centerboard included, with an epoxy and fiberglass kit to go with it, and rates the build easy, at about 150 hours. Real hours from logged builds appear below.
