A guy once asked me where he could buy one of my 36 ft hulls. I told him he could buy a load of steel and I could put the hull, decks , cabin ,cockpit , keel, skeg and wheelhouse together in a couple of weeks , for far less money, time and hassle than he would have finding a hull ,negotiating, moving it, etc. He followed my advice, and in a couple of weeks he had what he was looking for. He is now cruising New Zealand.
Origami hulls are quick and easy to build , one of the easiest parts.
Remember , going to the bank will mean paying double by the time the interest is paid.
