This craft has been designed as a 4 berth family cruiser with an enclosed toilet and is the smallest in our range of cruising launches. The lightweight construction makes the craft easily trailed by any 6 cylinder car and launching and retrieving are easily accomplished. Construction is the tried and proven frame and stringer system which is used in all the Aquarius Empress range. The frames are spaced away from the skin to make the craft easy to clean and to prevent hard spots which can cause structural failure. The bottom ply is 9.5mm or 3/8" and the sides are 8mm or 5/16" with the flare constructed from 2 skins of 4mm or one skin of 3/16" and one skin of 1/8". The hull design features our proven gullwing stern section and deep vee bow which ensures a soft ride under all conditions.
The plan includes FULLSIZE PATTERNS of the frames, stem, rims, transom and deck beams plus detailed drawings of hull construction, cabin construction, setting up etc.
