The Lawton Tender
came about in response to a customer looking for a small
yacht tender he could build with strips. The lines were
taken directly from John Gardner’s Building Classic
Small Craft and modified for cedar-strip construction.
Originally designed by Charles Lawton, renowned for his
fine tenders and superlative craftsmanship, the tenders
had to “row and tow well, be moderately good seaboats,
carry heavy loads, yet shine like a piece of fine furniture.”
The Lawton Tender will complement the finest yacht or
serve as classy little fishing boat.

All
of our kits are created as we get orders. Please email
us (info@newfound.com) with your name,
address, telephone number, and shipping address (if
different) and we will email a quote that includes
packaging and shipping costs.A "kit" can include everything
or just certain items. If you just want strips, email
us with the pertinent name and address, the design
you are building and we will email a quote. We mill
all of our strips here at our facility in New Hampshire
to the highest standards after air drying the cedar.
If you pick up at our shop, of course there is no
shipping charge. We will shrink wrap your materials
so that they are impervious to the weather. A kit
can be picked up with a vehicle that you would normally
use to transport your canoe or kayak.
