Are you at the beginning of your wooden boat building project – looking for suitable wood boat plans? This is the time when you need to do a thorough inspection and make a wise decision in suitable plans. I have been in you situation many times before. 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 best boat plan for you. 1. Whether it is a kayak, canoe or hydroplane, 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. See, if your plan has a step by step construction guideline. 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.
