A seaworthy inboard runabout for fishing, general utility and pleasure, described as a 'small ship'. Its developable-surface design gives a plywood hull lines better than most round-bottom craft, with plenty of forward flare for stability. Powered by a 10–25 hp inboard, it is sea-kindly in smooth or rough water.
