Newfoundland dories were used as traditional fishing boats from the 1850s on the Grand Banks of Newfoundland. It is usually a lightweight boat with high sides, a flat bottom and sharp bows about 5 to 7 metres long. It is easy to build because of its simple lines. For centuries, the dory has been used both in coastal waters and in the open sea.
