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.

Sail Rig Test

Did a test of the mast, gaff and boom. The sail was not properly rigged, I just wanted to make sure that everything hoisted properly and it did. She will be easy to recognize on the water!
