Seaworthy, trailerable hull, can be built of plywood or other flat sheet material and amenable to stitch-and-tape construction.

With a three bladed, 14" x 17" propeller and 600 - 700 engine rpms (such as our 5HP Compound engine), this boat is capable of 9 - 10 mph (8 - 10 knots)

This is a boat that can be built in your garage with minimal tools and experience.



The drawings give all needed information. Two prints with table of offsets.

* All plans are "shipped" electronically, as PDF files. If you do not have a PDF reader (software to let you look at, even print, a PDF) you can go to adobe.com (never use a PDF reader that wasn't made by adobe, the inventors of PDF), or click here: the One True Adobe PDF Reader - Download.

(Personally, we would turn off their "free offers" prior to clicking the download button [those are for non-Adobe products], but that's your call.)

BTW: "PDF" stands for Portable Document Format. It's just a secure way (the secure way, actually) to move documents around electronically.

HP (in this context) means Horse Power. (Of course you know that; just being thorough.) It's a unit of power equal to 550 foot-pounds per second or 735.5 (or 746 -- believe it not, opinions vary) watts, and is the usual measure of the amount of work an engine can do.

Oddly enough, not that closely related to the amount of work a Horse can do! (Go figure.)
See Does one horsepower really equal the power of one horse? (at www.carkeys.co.uk) for more information on that subject.
