The Flying Scot Sailboat is built to your specifications!
|
|
Over forty years of sailing and marine construction experience produced the Flying Scot®, a Sailing Hall of Fame design. Its perfect for family trips, single-handed fun, and an excellent racer. And its a good investment. See our Buyer's Checklist and Flying Scot® Specifications below.
We encourage you to call us with any questions at 732-319-7735. Designed by the internationally famous racer Gordon K. "Sandy" Douglass, each Flying Scot® is hand-crafted with the highest quality materials and methods. The first Scot ever built still wins races!

The
Flying Scot® is Fast
The late
Gordon
Douglass is an internationally known racing champion, so he designed
the Scot for speed. The Scot is a low-displacement design (she sits
shallow in water) and she has a flat, tapered shape in the stern which
allows her to plane. This means she will come out of the water and is
not limited to her waterline hull-speed. With over 200 square feet of
sail area, she has the "engine" to move well in any wind
speed. Get her on a beam-reach with 15 knots of wind, and experience the
thrill of a planing hull!
The
Flying
Scot® is Stable and Safe
The Scot is not a
flopsy acrobatic design; the photo at left illustrates the Scot's
stability. Her slightly tunneled hull design, hard bilges and weighted
centerboard provide a strong righting moment. And with over 600 lbs of
reserve buoyancy, the Flying Scot® is unsinkable. The wide side
deck and seat allow the Scot to take a knock- down with little or no
water in the boat, and one person can easily right her in the water.
