I've been looking at the plans for the jericho lobster bay skiff and saw a video by shearline boatworks which made me love the boat even more. i'm interested in buying the kit but my dad is having negative thought because. The lobster boat 26 (lb26) is a plan for amateur like no other. we made it possible for an amateur to produce a boat that will look better than most production boats and have the resale value of a custom built boat.. Hello everyone! we're trying to find some plans for building a downeast-type lobster boat. we want to keep it trailerable, with an 8' beam, so that would put the length somewhere between 24 - 27' we're familiar with the arno day / beale / lowell / holland, etc. boats..
In my vision lobster 31 is the perfect choice for an experienced owner, who has gained a good boating career and has focussed perfectly what he needs from his boat, an owner who will hardly be satisfied from a world of pre-packaged mass-production grp boats.. These plans will be of interest to students of maine lobster boat design, as well as potential builders. most early lobster boats were built from builders models, and little documentation exists. plans consist of four sheets: lines & offsets, outboard profile, inboard profile and construction sections.. Hull type: round bilge hull form with a flat run aft, long deep skeg, and flaring topsides forward, characteristic of new england lobster boats. build in wood or "one-off" fiberglass. the wood version is built using conventional strip planking or cold-molded epoxy strip planked with triple laminated wood outer veneer..
