Description:

REDWING 21 Pilothouse is an able little pocket cruiser with capabilities way beyond her size and expense to build and operate. You will be able to:

  • Cruise your favorite waterways on her own bottom or trailer easily to distant cruisinggrounds.
  • Save money with an economical four stroke outboard in a well. She will cruise economically at 6 to 8 knots depending on power installed and loading aboard for that distant cruise. There is an option for an inboard if desired
  • Enjoy the enclosed comfort. She has a Vee berth forward. There is sitting headroom forward and standing headroom in the pilothouse. A galley is to port in the pilothouse and a porta potty fits under the console to starboard.
  • Get under way quickly with easy construction of either stitch and glue or glue and screw in rugged plywood, epoxy and fiberglass to seal up against the elements for years of lasting enjoyment.

Estimated cost for quality construction materials (not including power) is $18000. This cost includes a high level of outfit and finish you can be proud of after putting the effort into building this fine boat.

The Redwing 23 lines and arrangements are included with the Redwing 21 construction plans.
