Worbash became a project to design a small boat suitable for long distance. live-aboard sailing for basically two people in comfort, to be constructed originally from timber, but to have G.R.P. options. Costs to be kept to a minimum commensurate with good practice. a choice of keel forms and keel materials. although the layout shown is for four, five could be
accommodated with slight changes. Accent is on liveability and safety. hence the deep cockpit, good sidedecks and 6β€³ bulwarks. Engine size recommended is 12hp – 20hp diesel.
Worbash became the inspiration behind the highly successful, long distance cruising. steel yacht range, known as Calliope.
This is a popular size as there are already four afloat. The design features low freeboard sections to allow easier boarding access. The design is intended for two people to live aboard/cruise aboard for several years: the wheelhouse is intended just as a wheelhouse and not to double as a deck saloon thus keeping living private.
Single engine 80-125hp recommended. She has a Schilling rudder as standard which provides excellent manoeuvreability even at very low speeds therefore obviates the need for a bow thruster.
Design could be shrunk slightly to under 15m and be modified to incorporate an aft cabin.
Number 1 took a sea trip up the East Coast from the Thames estuary in force 5 winds and seas, just to make sure should could handle it. Carried out without undue problems and with no water across the decks.
