Hi Chris,
Funny this happened to me the other day…I came across the Open Bic for the first time. It looked great, as I’m sure you’d agree, but when I found out the price my immediate thought was “surely you should be able to build one out of plywood”. So I sat down and started modeling the hull from the photos that I’d seen. Then…I came across your site. Great to see what you’ve done. I looking forward to seeing the prototype on the water. Keep up the good work, and don’t worry about all the crap on the forums.
Cheers,
Hawk.

hi Chris ,
Anything further on the proto type and plans
******************************
Rob,
The prototype is in build right now and will be tested as soon as the epoxy is dry enough to get the boat wet. If everything works as expected, the plans will be out within days after that. Today it snowed and it will be like that for about another couple of weeks. By then the boat will be done and we should be out on the water right away.

Hi Chris

I appreciate your posts on SA. Any progress on the Cabrillo Skiff plans/kit?

Thanks,

Gerry

Gerry,
The prototype is being built right now and as soon as it gets wet and I see that everything is working, I’ll have the plans ready to go out. Yes, there will be a kit, as well, with pre-cut panels allowing you to just get busy with the building.

Are plans available yet?
**********************

I’m building the prototype of the Cabrillo right now. I’ve done a series of models in heavy paper and then very light, 1/32 aircraft ply to look at all the fitting, etc. Now, I’m on to knocking out a full size example and getting some small adults and kids to put it on the water.

Hi David,

Thanks for asking about the plans for the Cabrillo Skiff design. I’ll be finished with the plans for the boat in about two to three weeks. At that point, I will build the prototype to verify all the design elements and then make the plans available for other builders.

Regards,

Chris
