Don't just take our word for it! Several journalists have reviewed
our boats and our customers often send us feedback too.
our boats and our customers often send us feedback too.
WATERCRAFT looked at both the 9ft Clinker Stem Dinghy (with sailing rig) and
14ft Trio (under electric motor), in May 2011: Watercraft 9ft Clinker and 14ft Trio
SAILING TODAY reviewed the production version of the Pram Dinghy, with lug
sailing rig, in September 2010, including a useful "picture story" of how to assemble
the hull. Click here: Sailing Today Nestaway Pram review (NB kick-up rudder, and
boom, are now available as options.)
YACHTING MONTHLY reviewed our original all-wood Pram Dinghy (left hand
boat in the picture above) - from which the moulds were taken for the current
glassfibre production model, in December 2008. They also looked at our 7ft 10"
clinker stem dinghy (5th from left), which is now special order only (replaced by a
beamier, deeper model). Click here for pdf: Yachting Monthly Ten Tenders Tested
We have good stock of the Sailing Today and Watercraft articles (duplicates,
approved by the publishers), and would be pleased to post these to you on request.
Please note that prices and other specification details may have changed since
these reviews - if in any doubt please ask us. Generally speaking if there was a
criticism we will have tried to address it.

me with such a handsome, seaworthy and well-built craft. I am sure I will get years of enjoyment from it"

motor/row and picnic on the bank...bliss and she handled like a dream."

"The boat is perfect - easy to transport, mount and dismount, and even easier to row... effortless. My car is a Peugeot 307 hatchback and if you push the driver's seat right forward (I am only 1.6m tall) it fits right inside. S.R-B, Spain
NESTAWAY 8FT PRAM:
"Had great fun crossing the Gulf to St Tropez... a great boat"
G.S., Warwick
"My 8 year old grandson was delighted with a boat he can row easily even with his grandpa aboard. He also
has had a sail and enjoyed it but he says he would like more wind next time. My wife is also pleased that she
stays dry in the new tender in conditions when in an inflatable she would expect to get wet. Result! Thanks
again for a great little boat."
