 Storm 15 bowling along in force 5 | The Storm range of double ended dayboats focus on aesthetics and easy sailing performance. The range comprises 15', 17' and 19' craft that have traditional lines but are lightweight and simple to maintain and sail. They do not have the outright top speed of our raider range of boats but are exceptionally fast in light winds where the reduced wetted surface of the double ended hull form really comes into its own. For this reason they also make excellent rowing boats.
We offer a range of rigs to suit customer requirements and we welcome discussion if you have something specific in mind. The Storm range are all available as full or panel kits as well as complete boats. We can also build the 17 as an epoxy infused composite (essentially a GRP construction except using epoxy under vacuum instead of polyester, resulting in a much stiffer lighter hull).

 The first BayCruiser 23 on builders trials | The BayCruiser 23 is our newest cabin boat design, for those that want a little more space, performance, and seaworthiness than the BayCrusier 20 while maintaining a classic, sleek profile.
The design has evolved from the BC20 though the most immediate difference is the lack of mizzen in the standard boat, though we are open as always to customer preference on the rig.
She retains the successful waterballast system which keeps her on her feet in stronger winds yet can be pumped out in light weather or when on the trailer.

| Length: 20ft 3ins (6.17m) Beam: 7ft 6ins (2.3m) All up weight: 990 lbs (451kg). Weight of water ballast tanks: 880lbs (400kg)
