Skylark Sq. Stern
Over three years in
planning, the Skylark represents the sum of our efforts to create the
perfect small rowing craft. Comfortably sized to fit up to three adults,
this beautiful boat tracks superbly with a unique triple-keel design. The
Skylark comes with two sets of brass oar sockets, one set of oar locks or
leathers, and one pair of cherry oars; cherry trim, seats, and backrest. A
wide, fan-shaped stern seat is also included that looks and feels fantastic.
As versatile as it is beautiful, the Skylark is destined to become a hit
with sportsmen as well as the recreational rower. And if you prefer not to
row, the Skylarks square stern allows for up to a 4HP gas motor (or any
size electric) to be mounted instead.
