I've had the pleasure of borrowing one for a day on Rockhold Creek and it was a dream to row. http://www.whitehallrow.com/ Why so heavy? A 14 footer weight over 200# is a PITA to handle. It could be built lighter out of wood.... or maybe it's the wood trim in that nice looking but very dense stuff that adds so much weight. I'm planning to build a tender for our trawler that will have the same classic looks as a Whitehall (which is actually a type of wherry, not a dory) but will be a one-hand job to lift & carry. Fresh Breezes- Doug King Tell us more about your trawler. I looked for it at Lee's site, but couldn't't find a picture of it.
