Building a 12 Foot Catboat

Follow me as I build a 12 foot catboat from plywood and pine. The boat was designed by Edson Schock in the 1940's. This is a project born of a desire to have another boat to sail here in Puerto Rico that will stand-up to the Trade winds. The sail plan will be changed to a gaff rigged sail. All the lumber is locally bought and pine will be substituted for oak, which is not readily available here. Marine plywood will be used.

Trimmed the Sides

Trimmed down the sides, cutting the excess plywood above the shear and the excess frame. Working on the very front of the boat, the bow stem. Trying to decide how high to leave it.
