Firebug

The 'Firebug' is a 2.4 metre (8 foot) sailboat, a trainer yacht for learning, for club sailing or racing or simply a family fun boat, for holidays at the beach or take it camping. It's fun to build and fun to sail especially if you have built it yourself.

This is not a knock-it-up-in-a-w eekend throwaway boat - it's a real boat, light but strong, nice to sail or race and just right for learning boat building and sailing skills.

The Firebug, constructed from timber and plywood, has been designed for the novice builder as well as the experienced. The building technique is optimised to be as foolproof as possible - the step by step construction system is self checking as work progresses.
