Oxford Wherry Kit

The Oxford Wherry combines elements of traditional beauty with modern design and construction to create a vessel that is not just gorgeous, but surprisingly functional. Its design takes the positive elements of traditional wherries and Whitehalls – wineglass transom, carvel-like construction, and elegant woodwork - while jettisoning the less-than-ideal attributes such as excessive weight and beam.
