Wanted: Teifi Skiff

[Quentin Shaw]

Unfortunately Swallow no longer manufacture the Teifi Skiff, which is an ideal coastal rowing boat. Does anyone know of one which might be available for sale?

Hi Quentin
I know nothing about skiffs and almost nothing about rowing but I'm attracted by the Nigel Irens 14ft skiff currently featured in Practical Boat Owner as a kit-build:

Do you, or other knowledgeable person, think one of these would be suitable for leisurely rowing up the Dee with young family for picnics and occasional day-sailing on inland lakes?

And what sort of rig would they suggest? Michael - this is your opportunity to extol the virtues of a junk rig 

Gladys need not worry, a rowing skiff is no substitute for a Bayraider.
