The Doughdish is a 15.83ft gaffhead sloop designed by Nathaniel Herreshoff and built in wood or fiberglass by Edey & Duff (USA) since 1972.
100 units have been built.
The Doughdish is a heavy sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat.
