I had a Bolger Nymph for awhile. The same features that made it effortless to row and tow---a narrow waterline----also made it tender. You had to be careful getting in and out. Once you were settled down on the seat it was as good a rowing tender as you could imagine. Bolger specified a 59-square-foot sail for it, which gives you a sail area/displacement ratio that rivals an International 14. I can't imagine staying upright for long. Relatively few Nymphs are rigged for sail. Bolger later acknowledged the tender's tenderness and drew up a new one, "Reuben's Nymph," that was simply six inches wider, give or take. Those are supposed to have the qualities of the original with none of the vices. ALERT! ALERT! SHAMELESS PLUG! My Eastport Pram design----about 750 built---is 48" wide and pretty easy to build. _http://www.clcboats.com/boats/eastportpram_photos.php/_ (http://www.clcboats.com/boats/eastportpram_photos.php/) Cheers, John
