Description

From the time William Atkin left a budding career in civil engineering to take up boatbuilding and designing in 1906, until his son John's death in 1999, the Atkin drawing boards spawned over 900 designs. This group is for the discussion of those designs and the boats built from them.

The current Atkin plan catalog is online at: http://www.atkinboatplans.com/

If you set out to build an Atkin boat, please do not modify the plans. If you stray from the plans you do so at your own risk and Atkin Co. will take no responsibility for the performance of the resulting boat.

... Wow... I never noticed Pocahontas before. That is a really nice little boat and perfect for the kind of 'dingy cruising' that seems to be getting popular.

Re: Unlikely Boat Builder: The Essential Tools
