Plans to build your own Wooden Boat
For building without a kit, from scratch
The plans package is comprehensive and thorough, the most detailed you will find in the industry. A typical plans package is part of the plywood kit price and contains a set of 11x17" prints showing:
lines plan with specs and layouts for planking
plans for laying out and making parts (for scratch builders)
plans for setting up the building jig with perspective views to help visualize 3-dimensionally
construction plan(s) and sectional views with perspective views to help visualize 3-dimensionally
rudder, centerboard or daggerboard (foils), trunk layout and installation
sail plans and spars plans
oar plan for your boat
full size patterns can be made available for additional cost on some boats
the plans package for scratch builders includes most or all of the dimensions in both the imperial and metric
The plans package includes a manual (oriented towards kit builders but still helpful) which guides builders through the construction process. It is assumed that plans-builders have the ability to build the boat from just plans, but we supply the kit builders manual as a helpful guide. Lists that show wood parts, hardware, and epoxies are supplied with the plans. The plans come via a Google Drive link which gets builders full access to all the PDF files which are always up to date as changes are made. We can also print and ship for an additional $25-35 fee.
We can ship hardware and epoxy to folks building from scratch to save you a lot of time sourcing the material - we would appreciate the business if you chose us for your hardware and epoxy needs! Please take advantage of all our products - tools, sawhorses, oars, sails, accessories, trailers - a suite of products we have developed from hard fought experience. Your support helps our business do what we do.
