egg-laying wool-milk-sow

[dschin]

I´m looking for a "egg-laying wool-milk-sow" *g*

I wanna use it single or with my wife like a canoe (so a seakayak is out of order)

on rivers, big lakes(short high waves), coastal cruising, islandjumping

loadcapacity: camping gear for 2 persons  + us (~ 220 kg)

possible adapted with sailing-equipement (for quick islandjumping, ama?)

length: ~ 5m
beam: 0,8-0,9 m
hullweight: < 40 kg

Does someone has an idea?

Best regards from vienna/austria

I think Hugh Horton's Bufflehead sailing canoe meets your spec.

Here Hugh is paddling two up



sailing off Cedar Key



Plans here http://www.duckworksbbs.com/plans/bufflehead/index.htm

Here's Axel carrying Bufflehead on his shoulder



A simpler solution would be any two seater open canoe fitted with Solway Dory's lug rig and outriggers.

Loads on the Song of the Paddle sailing canoe forum here

Hope this helps - your requirements can be met.

I know bufflehead and I'm in contact with axel.

I think he is planning a s&g-version of the bufflehead

but I don't know if the bufflehead has the answered loading capacity in secute modus

does someone know it?
