Daisy Dory Skiff 15
Description
Designed by Harry Bryan, a Canadian naval architect known for practical wooden boats, the Daisy 15 was introduced in the late 1990s and featured in WoodenBoat Magazine (e.g., issue #147, 1999) as a plans-only, home-build project. Using lapstrake planking or plywood-epoxy adaptations, it’s intended as a lightweight tender, daysailer, or coastal cruiser—expanding on the 12'6" Daisy with more capacity and range. Over 30–50 units are estimated to have been built by amateur and professional builders, praised for its rowability, stability, and optional sailing rig.

Disclaimer. Boats are not all the same -- even when produced in the same factory of the same model. Sailrite does its best to publish accurate dimensions, but we often find it worthwhile to have our customers measure their boats carefully before we produce kits for them. You should take the same precautions, especially when the data is not from Sailrite. The information on this site is not guaranteed to be accurate.
