TW28 Questions

Post by Jeff »

This question arrived over the weekend: "Dear Sir & Madam, I'm interested in the tw8 model. I want to build it as epoxy over plywood. The following questions are puzzling me, can you clarify them?

You said in your study plan that you prepared the cutting plan of plywood as 1220mm x 2440mm. Standard plywood dimensions of 1700mm x 2200mm is in Turkey. Can you prepare accordingly? Or do you have such a version? Can you give a reference to who makes a boat with this manufacturing method? I want to get information about the boat's stance and maritime at
Cheers, Emre

You can build the boat form different plywood sizes. The nesting drawing is just a suggestion but you can cut your panels differently, it will not affect the boat itself.

Many TW28 were built all over the world, at least 4 or 5 in Turkey.
Do a Google search and you will find close to hundred pages about the TW28 including one company building the boat professionally but since they haven't paid their royalties, I will not link.
