A practical collection of plywood boatbuilding plans

Centered on 15 designs by Phil Bolger, this guide lays out several kinds of small craft for different forms of use on the water: sailing, rowing, paddling, and outboard power. The selection includes a multipurpose skiff, pirogue, pram dinghy, peapod, rowing dory, and work skiff, giving the book a workshop-oriented range rather than a single-project focus. Payson organizes the material around step-by-step construction guidance, along with practical discussion of tools and materials. It is a hands-on resource for approaching plywood boatbuilding through accessible designs and clearly defined uses.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Amateur boatbuilders seeking plywood construction projects
  • DIY sailors, rowers, paddlers, and small-boat owners
  • Builders interested in Phil Bolger boat designs
