Oz Goose
Designed by Michael Storer
The Oz Goose is a 12 ft plywood sailing dinghy from Michael Storer, built from six sheets of plywood. It carries one to three adults, or two adults and a couple of children.
The plans offer two ways to build: with timber framing, the cheapest option in North America and in developing countries, or with epoxy fillets, which is the fastest. Precut plywood kits are sold in several countries. The class is busiest in the Philippines, where national championships have been sailed on Taal Lake and a club fleet sails several times a week, and there are groups of builders in the United States as well.
What building a Oz Goose 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.
