The Pointu
Marc Vuilliomenet has decided to start the production of this traditional Mediterranean fishing boat, ideally suited to recreational use...
Of robust construction, using mahogany strip planking and epoxy adhesive, the Mediterranean Pointu can sail all year round. Over-wintering on land is also possible as drying out is not a problem with these modern materials.
Designed for up to six passengers and fitted with the most recent low-pollution diesel engine.
Several options are available, as extras to the basic model.
Once the hull is finished and righted, the mahogany slats and the bulkheads (creating buoyancy
compartments) are fitted. The motor is placed between two watertight bulkheads to meet European standards.
A construction in cold moulded mahogany. 3 crossed layers, glued with epoxy, using a vacuum pump system for good results. The mahogany frames are then attached to the hull, joining the keel, stem and stern post.
Built of cold moulded timber (wood / epoxy); Unsinkable, with self-bailing cockpit; 13 HP modern diesel engine.
LOA: 19'6" Beam: 7'6" Draft: 1'7" Displacement: 2,156 lbs Capacity: 6 persons

This dinghy was designed by the architect François Vivier who has christened her "Ebihen".
Her length overall is 4M50, built in mahogany strip-planking (bois-moulé in french),
then varnished to my usual high quality standards.
A traditional skiff for sailing alone or with your family; Easy and flexible to sail, the Ebihen's metal centreboard gives her excellent stability and the possibility of sailing to the wind.
The Ebihen is available with several different rigs, the Lugsail (illustrated on my site) for those who prefer simplicity; Traditional Gaff for more experienced sailors who will appreciate the lively handling, and "Bourcet-Malet" (Lugsail with standing lug mizzen), a rig commonly used in the channel and ideally suited to fishing.
Available from 25000 € inclusive of VAT (2011, ex-works).
