Drake Achievements
My first award with Drake was winning the Concours d’ Elegance for professional man-powered
boats at the 2010 WoodenBoat Show. That year I
finished 2nd in the Essex River Race, but in 2013, I
won first place in the fixed seat class by 4 minutes.
Drakes are avaliable in 17’ and 19’ configurations.
CNC kits are avaliable in Maine and Washington
State; Australia, New Zealand and France and the
United Kingdom.
You can also buy the plans and self build.

during Sail Caledonia
on Loch Ness. NB, as
the drake 17 doesn’t
have a leeboard or
dagger board its sail is
designed to be used
down wind. It is a
true rowing boat with
an auxiliary sail for
downwind progress.
