This runabout was designed for a general utility, fishing, or family boat. Her carrying capacity is large, and she is steady. Around a camp she is particularly useful, serving as a towboat, grocery truck, marine hayride, or what-have-you. She is not quite as easy to build as the type used for sailing, since the bottom planking has a sharp bend at the bow. This type of bottom, however, is better for a power boat. The bend does not require that the plywood be sprung or steamed, as the bottom is a true developable surface. You should not have any real trouble building her.
