Aulne was designed for rowing at sea, lake or river, with one or two rowers. One thwart is fixed and the second one may be shifted, allowing to trim the boat according to the number of rowers and a possible “passenger”.

Built with 4 to 6 mm plywood for the clinker version, Aulne is at the same time seaworthy, light, easy to handle and above all very pleasant when rowing. It allows considering outings of several hours and to carry a picnic basket. The boat breadth allows rowing without outriggers, which are not very practical when beaching on a strand with some choppy water. We avoid bad shots in the shins at the landing!

Aulne may also be built with a strip planked hull.

    Of course, any other type of oarlocks may be used.
    Yes, hull lines may be modified in a Scandinavian spirit!

    Very nice traditional outlook.an modern building techniques! A boat model that has sevaral advantages compared to a double ender. I own a similar myself, but it is made of pine and is heavier and demands more care….. I would however prefer another type of oarlocks and then I suggest a slight modification of the hull in order to make the boat more suitabel forthe scandinavian archipelago: Not so sharp bend between keel and the very vertical stem:and a more rounded profile of the keel under the transom..
