Hi ya Jon & Roger,
Sorry I didn't post more info earlier. When I last posted the plans were not immediately available. In the wooden boat library under two piles of saw dust :) So I had to set to my New Years clean up a bit earlier then planned (I had actually planned on 2 or 3 years from now)

I asked my wife if she had seen the Lil dubber plans. She said she hadn't but even if she had she wasn't sure that with 4 boats unfinished in the basement and two in the back yard that she was would tell me. Says she thought handing them to me might be an act of codependency. Is there a 12 step program for boat builders. :0 :)

All I can think of is:
1) acquire plans
2) acquire wood.
3) Rip wood
4) make saw dust
5) Glue up etc........

But I digress

In any case I found the plans:
The designer's name is Peter Hunt. He is part naval engineer, part marine surveyor part Yankee inventor and probably the only person ever to publish the words Cheese doodle shark and florispoole in a single sentence. So be prepared to be entertained.

When I bought them he was selling his plans for 15 bucks.
His address is The Shed For Sail Studio
P.O. Box 135
Norton MA 02766

Don't mind the fuzzing on the faces in the picture. I didn't get permission from the individuals to plaster their mugs on the web.

Hope it helps

Happy new year
