Boat of the week 10

Seen at the London Boat Show.

Stirling 9 clinker dinghyStirling 9 clinker dinghyA brand new Stirling and Son 9 clinker dinghy built by Will Stirling over the last 7 days. I left my visit to the boat show until nearly the end hoping to see Will finishing the planking. It seems he was much too quick for me! He wasnt even there when I visited the stand so I just took photographs and inspiration. The boat is timbered out and a stringer riser installed for the thwarts (I must find the name for this). This boat, and the gorgeous 14 sailing dinghy next to it, were rare treats at the boat show this year. Despite the economic crisis the show was once again dominated by enormous plastic motor boats. Its been a while since I went to the London show and it will be a few years until I go again. More power to the Stirlings elbows.
