Stray Cat
Description
The Stray Cat is a 16'6" plywood performance sailing skiff designed by Graham Byrnes (Bieker Boats) and offered as CNC kit/plans by Benford Design Group since the 2010s. Intended for racing and spirited daysailing, dozens have been built worldwide. Features narrow hull for speed, carbon daggerboard option, balanced lug rig, stitch-and-glue construction, and exceptional light-air performance. Its low wetted surface and planing capability make it faster than traditional dinghies while remaining stable for 2 adults. Popular in skiff racing circles for simplicity and speed.

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.
