Sea Scout Plans

Post by Russell2005 »

I downloaded the Sea Scout plans online. It's a great set of plans...and all for free! But, there's no details that show me how to build the mast and rig the sails. Is it in there somewhere and I just missed it? If not then where do I get info about that?

Thank you, I am happy to hear you like the free boat plans :D

That's right there are no mast and rig details yet. I am working on that but until then please be patient.

I am working on the rig together with the builder from the Czech Republic, and here is what we have come up with so far:

Hello,

I second the comments made above a cracking set of plans. I was wondering if you have had any progress on the plans for the mast and sail? Also can you shed some light on fitting the keel as it shows you how to build it but no fit it to the housing.

I have my own ideas but you are the expert and why reinvent the wheel as they say. Having done some sailing in the past I was wondering if the keel in the plans would be able to handle a large enough sail to give it some pull. The keel is fairly small and unweighted but if anyone can prove me wrong I would be delighted!

Tak!
