Wood Boat Plans - A Guid to Selecting Good Wood Boat Plans

Finding good wood boat plans should be the first step in you wooden boat building project. Based on my experience in boat building, here I am going to give you a guideline with 3 simple tips which you will always find useful in choosing the good and suitable ones among the different wood boat plans.

1. A good plan should always be easy to understand. Even an amateur should be able to understand it without much effort. You may be a seasoned boat builder and looking to make a luxury boat. But, a good plan should be able to explain all the features clearly.

2. Another important characteristic of a good plan is that it should have sufficient details of all the parts. Many a times due to absence of sufficient details an amateurs boat builder makes mistakes in shaping and positioning some of the parts, especially few parts like paddle, hull. So, look at the plan thoroughly and visualize the boat and it's all the components and make sure that it leaves no doubt.

3. Good wood boat plans come with the description of the construction technique. Even you are looking for simple stitch and glue boat plans, see whether the plans have step by step construction guidelines. The first plan I used came with a construction guideline. It was mentioned that using the guideline, the boat could be built in 3 days. I followed the guideline exactly and built the boat in exactly 3 days.

Selection of good wood boat plans can make your wooden boat building project rewarding and full of fun.
