Small Craft Plans presents the boatbuilder and the dreamer with complete plans for each of the 15 small boats included in this collection.
Taken from Benford's original drawings and reduced in scale, the plans are nevertheless complete and ready for lofting full size.
The boats range in size from 7' to 18' and can be varied for rowing, sailing or small outboard engine.
The book is illustrated with line drawings and photos of completed boats.
Each chapter opens with a brief commentary about the design at hand and some particulars about boats built from it.
Let's get it straight up front...Benford knows that readers will build directly from the book...In fact, he encourages the process by including full working drawings and tables of offsets for all of the designs. WoodenBoat Magazine
Well known for his imaginative yet practical and aesthetic boat designs, Jay Benford has collected here an entourage of his boats. . . These exceptionally beautiful boats, although a bit challenging to build, are well worth the effort. International Marine Boating Books Catalog
