Would not do. the boat had to be a faering or nothing, so any suggestion of more strakes than three was soon rejected in iain’s quiet but insistent way, and a laminated stem and stern – as opposed to solid, scarphed oak – didn’t stand a chance. of course, the idea of building a faering to plans is absurd. there are no such plans.. After a little more research, matt found plans for a more modern version drawn up by iain oughtred. having launched her, matt reports that he is ‘absolutely chuffed’ with the boat, which he plans to use for family sailing with his son, richard, and his wife – if she feels brave enough to sail with him..
16’6 iain oughtred ‘elfyn’ matt and jay are building a modern version of a norwegian faering. the boat construction method is glued clinker.. Iain oughtred designed this faering to use modern materials yet still keep the simple beauty and performance of the original boats. these boats have a narrow beam at the waterline for efficient rowing, but the topsides flare significantly, which provides plenty of reserve stability..
