 | Micro Sleep aboard Beach Cruiser by PerttuA brilliant bit of industrial design. A tiny 8ft sleepaboard beach cruiser. Easy to store, inexpensive to build, but uses all my highly developed Oz Racer parts except for the hull. This takes you to the Duckworks website |
 | Quick Canoe 155 - Simple build in a 2+ weekends.First one took the builder 4 1/2 hours to get on the water - but me longer! It has been designed to be as easy to build as possible while keeping some of the qualities of a good paddling canoe - in particular the ability to track. |
 | Eureka Canoe - a pretty, simple and classic canoeLight on the land, Excellent distance touring boats. 156", simple construction 44 - 32lbs (15 to 20kg) - Click here for a comparison between plywood canoe plans. |
 | Goose - supplement for a 12ft OzRacer/OZ PDRacerThe basic OzRacer sails well with two aboard, but some might like the extra space of the PDGoose. Use the OzRacer plans to make all the bits but this supplement for a longer hull. You can build one of each hull and then choose which one to sail. |
 | 15 1/2 ft Rowboat - easy pretty plywood rowboatSimple, lightweight rowing boat for one person based on the Goat Island Skiff. |
