Aulne
Designed by François Vivier
Aulne is a 4.12 m pulling boat with a 1.38 m beam, designed for rowing at sea, on lakes or on rivers with one or two rowers. One thwart is fixed and the second can be shifted to trim the boat for the number of rowers and a possible passenger.
The clinker version is built in 4 to 6 mm plywood, and François Vivier describes her as seaworthy, light and very pleasant to row for outings of several hours. She is wide enough to row without outriggers. She can also be strip planked. Full-size patterns or a plywood kit are required to build her.
What building a Aulne 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.
