The Tiny Ripple is a compact and graceful wooden dinghy, originally designed as a lightweight tender for yacht owners. Measuring just six feet, it combines stability, safety, and ease of handling in a simple yet elegant form. Small but sturdy, it perfectly embodies the timeless charm of traditional boat design. This 30-inch custom-made scale model is handcrafted to order using the plank-on-frame method. Our master craftsmen select only the finest mahogany, teak, white cedar, and other exotic woods, ensuring museum-quality detail and finish. Each model requires approximately 4-5 months of meticulous handcrafting, faithfully replicating the hull shape, deck layout, and proportions of the original boat. During the production process, you'll receive photo updates at key stages for review and approval: - Hull formation and planking - Seating and detailing - Final painting, varnishing, and finishing touches Once completed, the model is securely packed in a reinforced wooden crate for safe international delivery. Available exclusively as a custom-made project, the Tiny Ripple model celebrates the enduring beauty of traditional craftsmanship.

The Tiny Ripple was designed by the legendary American naval architect William Atkin as a response to the growing need for small, well-built dinghies that could truly serve as dependable tenders for cruising boats. Published in MoToR BoatinG magazine, the design emphasized practicality and safety-qualities often overlooked by yacht owners who invested heavily in their main vessels but neglected their dinghies. Atkin aimed to create a compact yet capable tender that would remain afloat in rough water, offering stability, buoyancy, and carrying capacity far beyond its modest size. Built from light white cedar and featuring watertight compartments for flotation, the Tiny Ripple became one of Atkin's most admired small-boat designs, valued for both its simplicity and reliability.
