Member pojects

I would like to place my boat in the member projects section of the forum. Please advise as to the proceedure necessary. Also I would like suggestions for plans for a sailboat similar to the 1930s design, Corky that is about 18', fast, stable, roomy, and relatively light and easy to build.


 

Thanks,

David

"corky" sailboat

Is anyone familiar with the "corky" sailboat?  It appears to be a swift, roomy, stable craft and relatively easy to build.  Any comments will be appreciated!

8ft rowing boat


First I build a jig on top of a table added the moulds with cutouts for the keel.gunnels and chines, then fitted the keel,gunnels and the chines cutting them flush to the moulds.

Here is how I built an 8ft wooden rowing boat at home from a book called Small boat building by Dave Gannaway [price new £1.95 I got from Ebay £5 robbers]
