Aileen Louisa is a traditional plumb-stemmed clinker dinghy built in Victoria in 1986. This vessel is constructed of kauri on silver ash frames, with a jarrah keel and stem and mahogany transom, all copper- fastened. She has a removable bowsprit.

She is fitted with two rowing stations, and her fine quarters, wineglass transom, and full body make her an excellent, burdensome, pulling boat. In addition, she sails well with her large sprit mainsail and optional staysail. (The mainsail is presently used boomless, but a boom is also provided.)

The vessel comes on a fully-adjustable trailer (included in the price,) and an optional long-shaft 4.5 hp Seagull Silver Century outboard motor may also be available if desired.
