Wooden Boat Plans

Then one day, I found the perfect wooden boat plan. I actually found it on some online video magazine dedicated to do it yourself projects. It was the simplest do-it-yourself wooden boat plan I have ever looked at – and I have looked at quite a few. Everything about it was simple. The boat was flat bottomed without any curves, and the bow was at a right angle. There was no bending of wood involves, and the frame was designed to be easy to put together.

It was so simple in fact that you could make it without anything but a hammer and nails, a saw, and some adhesive. They even had plans to make it simpler by using some kind of weird plastic thing for the body instead of actual wooden planking, but this seemed a little bit lazy to me. I did not want to be out in the middle of the water and have my boat suddenly fill up with the whole Lake!

Last weekend, I actually got around to starting on the wooden boat plans. I drew a full sized versions of the plans onto the requisite pieces of wood, and began to cut. It took me almost all day, but by the end of Saturday I had all the pieces cut out. Sunday, I started to assemble the slats, and I was soon well on my way to completing the project.

This weekend, I'm going to try to finish putting together the wooden boat plans. I have a friend who is very good at this sort of thing, and he has promised to come over to help me. The planking is supposed to be the tricky part with building wooden boats. A lot of do-it-yourselfers don't really know how to fasten the planking in such a way that it will stay attached, so he offered to show me. He has promised me that, no matter what happens, the boat won't sink. We have some flotation foam inside just to make sure that if it does fill with water, it will still stay above the surface.
