Boat Builder Central

amateurboatbuilding.com and bateau2.com do not work for me right now.

I noticed that the linked picture in the "Panga motorwell design" thread is not displayed so I tried to go to the ABB site and it says "Unable to connect".

The scaled drawing file for the FS14 is missing the ".pdf" extention in the following link on the study plans page:

won't that effect the way the boat sits in the water compared to the standard 18 or 19 gal tank under the forward casting deck?

So even if the waterline is on the plans, don't have mine with me, that waterline may not be valid for what you propose.

I could design that easily if you accept to loose planing speeds.

What would you consider, displacement or semi-displacement?

And with this general length, what would those speeds equate too?

Here's one example of a 26' LOA with 8'6" beam:

I received some CAD files from the designer and he shows three layout options total. And of course, builder could modify further.
