Old Plans

[Puddle Jumper]

I am a wooden boat builder whose shop burnt along with all my plans, both my own originals as well as many old plans for larger plank built boats. My specialty and interest is in wooden boats built 1940's or earlier. Although I do use and make some newer models they are all small workboats, fishing dories, and canoes and kayaks.
The plans I am searching for are for a flat bottom workboat with a small one-man pilothouse. A newer design, I'm guessing 70's-80's origin, built of 4 inch planks with a centered outboard design controlled by an offset one man stand-up pilot house. The plans I had were for 12', 16', and 20' workboats. Does anyone have anything resembling this or have any ideas where I might look?

Sorry to hear about your shop. I can’t help much except to recommend another forum. http://www.woodenboat-ubb.com/vbulle...load/index.php There are a lot of wooden boat people there.
