Study Plans are available
for these designs - remember a study plan gives you more details and a
wood materials list usually on
two A1 sheets, so that you can cost out a project
before ordering the full plans. When you order the full construction plans
you do not need to order the study plan as well, as all the study details
are on the full plans.
There are 17 designs as
usual varying in type and style from the traditional Black Swan to the more
modern Ailsa - there are study plans (A1 sheets with sections,
construction details and a wood materials list, for most of these designs - for
further information please see the price list on the main page.
|
Note -
In the particulars for each design, the dry weight is given for guidance
only and will vary depending on the grade/density of plywood and solid
wood used - different thicknesses of ply are often used by builders and
the dry weight figure is based on the thinnest ply specified.
Also the Guidance Use comments are given in good faith and are based on
feedback from previous builders etc and based on standard weight adults
- contact us if you want further clarification before ordering/building.
Please also note that we give the computer faired mould, inner stem and
transom shapes plus the building jig details for clinker ply
construction where stated and recommend that the builder purchases a
good manual on this method of construction to use with these details. E & OE |

Following along the same lines as her smaller sister, this cruiser is an ultra
simple boat with plenty of space and performance for her size. She has room for
3 or 4 berths plus galley and portable wc. Construction simply involves fixing
pre-shaped side panels to ply frames, adding chine and gunwale stringers on the
outside and then applying a double thickness of ply to the bottom. Other
pre-shaped pieces are then added before fixing a ply ballast box filled with
scrap iron and cement. Centreboard or bilge keels may be fitted and she has 4
berths, space for a galley and wc and a handy gunter rig. She is simple but
immensely strong and efficient.

PIONEER 21' DORY/SHARPIE
|
|
 |
In this design a client asked for the largest and safest single handed offshore
yacht that he could get on a very limited budget. For your money. a dory or
sharpie gives you more length per £100 than any other shape. Add to this type
of hull a simple box ballast keel filled with scrap iron and cement and you have
a very seaworthy, inexpensive and quickly built design. The junk rig has been
used for its safe easily handled single handed qualities and the design has
been set up so that virtually all operations are controlled from the security of
the doghouse. The construction drawings are for Foam Sandwich Fibreglass
building. However, the design can easily be adapted for simple ply construction
and the keel arrangement may be altered to bilge or centreboard (we will be very
pleased to advice and supply drawings for any modifications to any of our
designs). LOA 206; LWL 176; Beam 74; Draft 33;

BLACK SWAN 22'
|

|

|
|
The bottom 2 photos above show an
example being built by Henner Ostermeyer in Germany.
|
|
The Black Swan is a stretched version of the White Swan for Dr. Carcereri of
Verona who wanted good headroom in a small traditional gaff cutter. In fact she
has just over 6 in the galley area and an accommodation that can be altered
to suit your own requirements. She has room for a small inboard diesel engine or
as an alternative, an outboard well could be incorporated. There is plenty of
room for stowage and the centreboard case has been kept as low as possible by
keeping the centreboard pivot outside the boat and through the keel. The case is
only 8 above the sole height. Construction is based upon pre shaped ply
frames and fore and aft girders which form the bunk/cockpit fronts. The hull
panel shapes are given on the drawing so that the planking goes on using the
stitch and glue method. This keeps construction costs and time down to a minimum
and requires only basic skills. LOD 226 (6.84m); Beam 84
(2.55m); Draft 25/45 (0.74/1.36m); Sail Area 340 sq.ft. (31.55

details/moulds for strip planking the hull.

24' MAYFLY SHARPIE
|
|
 |
A neat little ply sharpie of simple and cheap construction with 4 berths (and
room in the cockpit for more) for exploring estuaries and gunkholing. With its
simple unstayed rig, it is ideal for the small family. Uses disposable sand or
gravel ballast. Based upon the North American working sharpie. May be built with
centreboard. Construction is similar to our Song Thrush using pre-shaped ply
bulkheads and girders locked together with the hull bottom panel to form a
strong prefabricated structure to which the sides are added. |

| 21' RONA YAWL
|
|
 |
This little ship has been designed for the sailing author Derek Harvey and
incorporates many ideas gleaned from his years of sailing experience. The
starting point for the design was the requirement for a trailable boat with
comfortable internal living space for 2 with a large and practicable cockpit
area. The rig had to be both efficient and easy to use from the cockpit and she
had to carry a large outboard for motoring out to sailing grounds. Clinker ply
construction using 7 planks per side was chosen to give the hull a sweet
appearance which was fairly easy to construct (details and plank shapes are also
given for stitch and epoxy construction and she could be strip planked). For
easy trailing she has twin pivoted bilge boards which do not encroach on the
accommodation and are housed under the bunks and she carries some water ballast.
Inside there are 2 large bunks with galley and saloon/chart table and a locker
for a Porta Potti. The layout could be re arranged to take more berths. She has
a foredeck well and she carries a gunter yawl rig for good balance under reduced
sail. LOD 213 (6.48m); Beam 8 (2.4m); Draft 15/4
(.42/1.2m); Sail Area 280 sq.ft. (26.07 sq.m); Displ. 3938 lb. (1786kg); Approx.

22' KITTIWAKE CANOE YAWL
|
|
I think that the canoe
yawls of the early part of this century were some of the most beautiful cruising
yachts ever designed. They may not have had as much room inside as their modern
counterparts, but they were sea kindly craft with an easily handled rig and a
grace and charm all of their own. Kittiwake is our version of the old canoe yawl
using the modern ply/epoxy method of construction. She has 6 plywood planks per
side which are stitched together along with the ply backbone girder and
bulkheads. All the seams and joints are then bonded with epoxy and the hull
sheathed in woven roving. She has an L shaped steel centreboard which is
housed below the cabin sole and operated from the cockpit. The centreboard pivot
is located outside the hull so that there are no leaks. Ballast, in the form of
scrap iron or lead is housed in 2 steel ballast boxes to keep cost down and to
make the engineering side of the construction as simple as possible.
She has room for 2 or 3 berths, a wc and galley and she can have an outboard
well in the cockpit. Her yawl rig, apart from being traditional, is in easily
handled balanced areas allowing her to be sailed with just the jib and mizzen
up. We can also produce the computer faired mould shapes and details for strip
planked construction. Other keel configurations can also be drawn up. LOD 22
(6.70m); LWL 194 (5.92m); Beam 7 (2.10m); Draft 22/48

SKYE 21'
|

|
|
Here is a smart little yacht combining 2 modern building techniques to make
construction as quick and simple as possible. First of all, the pre-shaped ply
bottom panel and longitudinal girders are put together with frames and
bulkheads. To make things really simple, the hull side frames are all based upon
one master curve and once set up, the sides are constructed from strip planks no
more than an inch wide, bonded with epoxy. The drawing shows a central ballast
keel or centreboard options and the accommodation can be arranged to suit. There
is an outboard well aft and she will take up to, 4 berths. The centreboard
version lends itself to car trailing. LOA 206; Beam 73; Draft
110 (keel version).

AILSA 22 |
 |


 |
|
The Ailsa 22' is a lightweight trailer sailer which uses plywood/epoxy
construction for most of the hull and deck and modern strip planking for the
round bilge area. Pre-fabricated plywood sections are used for the basic hull
structure allowing a lot of the construction to be done in small easily handled
units before the whole hull is put together. Much of the initial construction
can therefore be started well away from the final assembly site. The standard
layout has four berths and a galley in an open plan arrangement with a separate
w.c. compartment. Trailing is made easy because she has a mast mounted in a
tabernacle and simple lifting bilge boards rather than a fixed keel. The boards
are a larger version of those used in our Lynx 14 design and work in slots
outboard of the main accommodation using a hoist arrangement which is controlled
from the cockpit. To keep the trailing weight down the ballast is divided
between permanent solid ballast and water ballast tanks which are filled once
the boat has been launched. The design could take different keel and ballast
options if required. |

This
is a multi-chine plywood entrant for the Mini-Transat race which takes
competitors across the Atlantic to Antigua via the Canary Islands. It is
known as one of yachting's most dangerous races and is fought by boats
with a maximum length of 6.5m. We have been asked to draw up a design
for a Canadian client which uses standard stitch and tape building
methods with non exotic materials for amateur construction. She
incorporates water ballast along with a lead ballasted bulb on a high
aspect ratio keel, inclined twin rudders and built-buoyancy. Whilst
designed for a specific race, she would provide fast exciting sailing in
coastal waters (the keel can be raised for easy transport) and has room
for more than the 2 berths shown. LOD 21'4" (6.5m); Beam 9'10"

| 23' YAMATO JAPANESE FISHING BOAT
|
|
This is a modern plywood updated version of the Japanese Yamato fishing boats.
The client in this case, worked in Japan and admired these boats - he was able
to obtain the lines from one example and gave it to us so that we could draw up
a simple plywood version. the simple flat bottomed double chine hull form is
similar to some of our motor boats and is an easily driven and stable shape. She
is mainly open with large lockers and a small forward cuddy. sail power is
provided by a simple unstayed lug rig and she has an inboard 9 hp diesel. Along
with the centreplate and skeg is stub bilge keels which allow her to dry out
upright. All in all, she is a practical sea boat.
Construction is ply
over frame with the frames, girders etc set-up on a strongback. LOD 23'7"
(7.2m); beam 7'2" (2.18m); Draft 1'7"/4'4" (0.49m/1.33m); Approx.
wht. 2977 lbs (1350 kg incl. 992 lbs/450 kg of ballast; sail Area 192 sq.ft.
(17.8 sq.m.).

Ranworth is a typical Broads type sailing cruiser with generous beam and
relatively large sail area to catch the wind above the reeds. She has 3
