If you go to "Svenson's free boat plans" you can pick from dozens and dozens of free boat plans. They are all reprints of old popular mechanics plans. I chose the "polliwog" model, and stretched it to 12 feet. It is a little honey of a boat, I built it in my garage last winter, and fished with it this last summer.(until my brother bought a 21 foot aluminum jet boat) It took a heck of a lot of time, more money than I thought, and was a really fun project. Since these are "classic" styles, you can doll them up with mahogany trim, chrome, ect. Anyone else built a boat? anyone interested in building one? At the very least you can check out the site and dream of that gleaming mahogany classic. I may try to post a pic of the "LRB." (little red boat)
