Abstract

A square-sterned dory of welded aluminum construction in which the chines diverge for their full length and an engine well is located forward of the transom and is open through the transom as well as through the bottom. Box cross-braces serve as seats and storage compartments, and bracing is added by a forward deck or seat and skirt providing a front compartment. A hawsepipe is provided at the bow which extends through the forward compartment to the forward end of the bottom for convenience in handling an anchor when the dory is used as a river drifter.
