The PEE WEE is small in size, small in cost, but BIG in fun. While not intended for hulking 200 pounders, it's great for the younger set or featherweight adults. A tiny outboard motor will really make it scoot, and yet it's safe when used within its capabilities.
The PEE WEE is inexpensive to build. Only two sheets of 4' x 8' plywood are required for the planking, while the decking and interior will consume most of another. A few "sticks" of lumber and a handful of fastenings are just about all that's required to complete the project. Dad will be the "hero" of the kids when he builds them a PEE WEE. In fact, they can build their own with a little supervision.
