Acorn 17, a study in practical elegance. Art in the looks, science in the performance.
Over the 35 plus years we have represented Iain Oughtred in Australia and the Pacific, the easy introduction to his unique catalog has been the word, ‘elegant’.
Launch day on the River Torrens, Adelaide.
Hearing that the wooden dinghy which had been used by a whole generation at the family beach shack was to be taken away and burnt was devastating. This sweet little boat had spent many lazy summers near Robe in SA’s south east, being used for reeling in fresh Lobster, Squid, King George Whiting & Garfish while doubling as an ideal swimming platform by all the beach kids.
A MINI SPORTBOAT
The Didi Sport 15 design was commissioned by an Australian living in the same city as me in USA. A South African designing for an Australian, for building in USA. He built his boat with exquisite workmanship, taking his time with the project over a few years. When completed he took it to the Wooden Boat Show in Mystic Seaport, Connecticut, where it took first prize in the sailboat division of the Concourse d’Elegance.
