Description

NEMAH SHARPY SKIFF

Designed By Tracy O’Brien

NEMAH features a stable, flat bottomed, sharpie type hull that can handle up to 3 passengers and a small outboard up to 5hp. Sides are ¼” plywood and the bottom is 3/8” plywood. A trussed gunnel rail insures hull stiffness. A free-standing square-sectioned mast and wishbone boom are detailed on the plans and are easily made yourself from locally available clear lumber. A kick-up rudder and dagger-board are also shown in the plans. NEMAH is built using light, strong and simple STITCH-&-GLUE construction ideal for amateurs. Drawings consist of seven 11″x17″ CADD drawn sheets, 10 sheets of typed instructions, and a 4 page sheet of scarphing directions, which cover both the scarphing process and the construction of the required fixtures. Nemah is named after a community on Washington’s Willapa Bay where the 3 branches of the Nemah river converge. She made her debut at Seattle’s Lake Union Wooden Boat Show the Summer she was built. A series of construction articles on Nemah were published in BoatBuilder Magazine issues 2-5, all published in 1987. More recently, Nemah was featured in the May/June 2025 issue of Wooden Boat Magazine’s “Launchings” section.
