With a semi-enclosed pilothouse, there’s no need to cut
your day short on the water due to blistering sun,
unrelenting rain, or freezing wind. Two adults can escape
these elements in full standing headroom. And equally
important, there is an enclosed head forward and below the
offset control station with generous headroom above the
"throne". Other features include self-bailing
cockpit, full walk-around access, forward casting deck, and
lots of space for built-in wells, fish boxes, and integral
seating areas.
The easy riding hull features a 40º bow entry and
18½º transom vee. Integral chine flats and double
lift strakes each side of the centerline on the bottom pop
the hull onto plane with little fuss. Plans detail single or
twin outboards, or I/O units up to 1250 lbs., all with plenty
of fuel available. Plywood sheet planking is easy to build
and features double ¼" bottom and 3/8"
sides. Aluminum hulls are 3/16" on bottom and 1/8"
sides. All plans includes FULL SIZE PATTERNS for framing
backbone members, plus instructions, material list, and
fastening schedule (wood hulls).
