Description
Make: handmade wooden boat aprox 5 years old


The traditional one-man dory from the days of the Grand Banks schooner fishery. At 17 feet, these dories can be rowed alone or with a partner, they are big enough to handle a motor well and they also make a fun sailing boat. What more do you need?Original Handmade SHELBOURNE DORY
Made at the Dory Museum in NOVA SCOTIA CANADA. Made to original plans from 1887 These are $5800 from the dory shop.
This was only used twice in its life. Picture shows some paint rubbed off from beaching on a rocky shore. No wood damage. comes with oars. There is an inside crack visible in a plank above the waterline that does not go thru to the outside. The maker told me I should leave it, as it does not affect the performance of the boat, or you could fill it.  Always stored inside.
I rowed this boat for one weekend and it glides on only 3 inches of water. Check out youtube for much more information on these incredible little boats.  Delivery on the east coast, from florida to nova scotia, for $600.00
This is a Handline Dory.
