Simple to sail, easy to row, the Skerry is a sports boat to be used, not just owned, and furthermore it looks nice! This hull is so sailboat light (45 kg) that it won't stay in place!

The Skerry is one of the few rowing hulls which are not "spoiled" by the required installations to make it an excellent sailboat. It is the boat for long treks: navigational when the wind is good, rowing when not. In both cases for boats, you'll be going far and fast!

The sprit rig is easy to set and to use, powerful for its size, and all the spars are sailboat short enough to be stowed without hampering rowing. The hull is stable and offers sufficient of buoyancy to face a good chop with 3 adults on boat board.

Two rowing stations allow several crew combinations while under oar, always keeping the best hull balance for optimum handling.

The Skerry is 15 ft long (4,58 m) by 1,37 m, with a draft of only 13 cm (76 cm with the board down). The sail area is 5,40 m2 (a larger sail, 5,70 m2, is available as an option). The hull weight is 45 kg: no problem to carry it on the small car roof rack for boat!

The name "skerry" comes from the ancient norse "sker". In English, "skerry" is still used for rocks and small islands which are covered by high seas. More precisely, "skerry" is the name of rocks ans shoals found at the entrance of fjords, which are formed by the network of glacially formed valleys at their intersection with the seashore.
