Steamboat plans

Post by ianrichards » Mon Dec 18, 2017 8:01 pm

By Christmas I should have the boiler completed and once we have all that nonsense (bah humbug) out of the way I can start building the boat itself.

It’ll be nice to start working with wood again rather than metal.

She’s a Paul Fisher design (Selway Fisher).
“Rose”
15’ 6” length
6’ beam

This’ll be the second of Paul’s designs I’ve built, so I know I’m in for a good time.
Scan of the plans below.
