12 Foot Catboat

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.

Foredeck

With Terri's help, I was able to get the patterns made and cut out the 2 pieces of 3/8" thick marine plywood that will become the froward deck.

Before we glue, screw and nail the deck down, I want to put the side deck pieces on so they can all be done on the same day.
