Where We're Going We Don't Need Plans

Just a quick update. Skat plans arrived! Went to see my boat building buddy Whiskey Carl who looked them over, smiled and eventually informed me we'll be building a catboat in the traditional fashion to my preferences. As it stands I'm looking at boat based on the Joel White Marsh Cat with a cuddy cabin in the style of historical cruising catboats. I'm still in a bit of shock but will update soon.

  1. Out of curiosity, did you consider Bolger's Bobcat? If you looked at both plans (just curious on your take), do you think one is better than the other...or perhaps easier to build? (I'm considering building a stitch-and-glue catboat)

    1. Mainly when conceived the idea was simple ease of building. The Skat goes together very much like the Piccup I built so I would be in familiar waters.
