Marine Designs
We have boat plans (both yacht designs, catamaran designs and power designs) for all sizes. From the 12ft Mushulu Dinghy stitch & glue yacht tender to the Oceansky 57 catamaran. We design timber boats, plywood boats, strip plank boats, fibreglass composite boats, steel and aluminum boats to very modern styling for both monohull designs or multihull designs, powerboat or sailboat and in round bilge, multi-chine or radius chine hull forms.
SportzMaster 19 Construction
The SportzMaster 19 is a composite strip plank design while the interior framing and joinery is constructed from Gabon or Okoume plywood. Using Paulownia timber or Western Red Cedar as the core and sandwiched in epoxy and directional E-glass fabrics, this overall result's in a stronger, tougher and more durable "Composite" boat, while still retaining its lightweight construction.

Construction
The following list of materials is approximate and intended for calculation of approximate costs. We offer no guarantees of accuracy. The list is for all timber in the construction of hull, deck and interior, including building stocks, temporary bracing etc. Allowance has been made in the quantities for about 10% wastage, with the exception of the building stocks and chipboard, which are net. These figures allow for building with 1/2 in (12mm) Kiri or Western Red Cedar skin for the hull and 3/8 in (9mm) plywood for the deck, joinery and cockpit sole. All frames and bulkheads are constructed from 1/2 in (12mm) Plywood.
Resin & glass quantities are only approx
