This fisherman’s delight has an agile, superb-riding
variable-angle deep-v hull with a 40+º forefoot angle
and 18½º transom angle. Wide chine flats and two
lift strakes per side assure directional control, quick and
economical performance, and the rock-solid stability that
fishermen demand.
A huge self-bailing cockpit includes raised casting platform
forward, space for a portable head, plenty of storage, and
seating for four including fore-or-aft facing helm seat.
Power is by I/O units to 1200 lbs., or single or twin
outboards (25" shaft length singles; 20" or
25" twins). Other power systems (v-drive, jets,
bracket-mounted outboard, etc.) may be suitable with minor
modifications. Fuel capacity is generous regardless.
Plywood planking is double ¼" bottom. "
sides, all sheathed with fiberglass. Aluminum hulls use
3/16" bottom and " sides. Plans with instructions
show how to vary length 2' shorter or longer, and include
FULL-SIZE PATTERNS, instructions, material listings, and
fastening schedule (wood plan). A carefully planned structure
emphasizing longitudinal stiffeners minimizes the need for
side frames encroaching upon cockpit space.
