Welsford Sherpa Dinghy

Year:  1990
Boat Location:  Hibiscus Coast, Auckland, NZ

Description

Welsford Sherpa Dinghy.

This beauty was built in Gordon's plywood shop in the mid 90s. Us old guys remember Gordon fondly!

She has been used lightly and would benefit from fine tuning and more strings added to tweak performance.

Slightly XL at just over 3m.

Includes the trailer, but happy to sell her without the trailer.

Can be viewed in Mahurangi West.

Questions & Answers

  • hi, was it built to the plans? how does it row? thanks john fish_head_soup (218) • 1:39 pm, Sat, 4 Oct Hi. The only difference to the plans (to my knowledge) is that she is longer. Rows well. Cheers, Mark msjd (371) • Saturday, 4 October 2025
  • Does it come with oars? I presume the transom would take a small outboard. seaeff1 (163) • 4:38 pm, Wed, 8 Oct Hi. Yes, there are oars. I have never used an outboard on her, but one could be clamped on. Cheers. msjd (371) • Wednesday, 8 October 2025
  • What does the hull weigh? henrylp (177) • 10:02 am, Thu, 13 Nov Hi. John's site says weight will be approx 38kg. I have not weighed her, but as she built slightly longer then the weight will be more. Two people can lift her, but transom wheels would help. Cheers. msjd (371) • Thursday, 13 November 2025
