The article discusses the design and features of a pocket motorsailer called Litl Coot. Designed by Sam Devlin, Litl Coot is a practical and appealing boat that can sail and motor equally well. It features a cat-yawl rig and can be powered by a 9.9-hp outboard motor. The boat's accommodations offer simple comfort for a couple, and it can be easily singlehanded. The article also discusses various design options, such as different keel configurations and the use of twin daggerboards. The construction of the boat utilizes the stitch-and-glue technique, resulting in a light, strong, and leak-free hull. [Extracted from the article] |
