Give me a call at , or send me an e-mail at | I’m Arch Davis – I learned boatbuilding and design in New Zealand in the 1970s. I have been helping people to build beautiful wooden boats since 1988. You can see a few of them by clicking on Picture Gallery . My approach to design is to put into your hands the means to use modern materials – marine plywood and epoxy resin – to build a truly lovely boat with classic lines. I believe that a boat should be beautiful, not just by virtue of her lines, but also in her construction. No material makes this possible like wood. My aim is to take advantage of wood’s unique strengths, in a structure that captivates the eye. I want you to feel that you are always doing good work in building one of these boats. You’ll see that I have a small collection of designs. That is because I understand your need for clear, comprehensible, detailed plans and instructions. I put a lot of time into my drawings, building manuals and DVDs. I also spend a lot of time helping people through their projects, on the phone or by e-mail. I really am here to help! If you see something that you like in my collection, please feel free to contact me with any questions. I am available on the phone at 207-930-9873, or email me at [email protected] .

I have a Yankee One-Design: a 30' racing sloop, "Venture," designed in 1937, built in 1949, and currently on loan to the Center for Wooden Boats.

There are plenty of options on the wooden boat store, ... The design of the boat will be much different from one boat to the next, regardless if they are the same size in length. If you are pondering boats that range anywhere between 16 and 20 feet, you should factor in the shape of the hull, any rigging, and various appendages.

In my experience the Laser is one of the popular one-design brands in existence ...

Building a collapsible version of the new one sheet design will be a perfect test of my considerations before I continue working on the 15' canoe. In my area the only available okume plywood sheet is slightly longer (250x122cm) than the "standard" sheet (244x122cm) so my build will be longer by at 2.4% compared to the standard version.
