Unfortunately Swallow no longer manufacture the Teifi Skiff, which is an ideal coastal rowing boat. Does anyone know of one which might be available for sale?

Hi Quentin
I know nothing about skiffs and almost nothing about rowing but I'm attracted by the Nigel Irens 14ft skiff currently featured in Practical Boat Owner as a kit-build:
https://www.pbo.co.uk/boats/free-boat-plans-build-your-own-nigel-irens-14ft-rowing-and-sailing-skiff-60770
Do you, or other knowledgeable person, think one of these would be suitable for leisurely rowing up the Dee with young family for picnics and occasional day-sailing on inland lakes?
And what sort of rig would they suggest? Michael - this is your opportunity to extol the virtues of a junk rig
Gladys need not worry, a rowing skiff is no substitute for a Bayraider.
