Looking for plans for this boat

-
I was checking out the plans at:

D. N. Goodchild ---> Power Boat Plans ---> Hydroplanes ---> Fast Hydroplane for Small Motors

​

Giving her a bit of a V bottom, and a bit wider cockpit, and she already becomes looking like Grandpa's boat I believe . .

Best check out the whole Power Boat section there I think . . ​

P.S.

Maybe she also could handle, and be ameliorated by, a ± 18 % length stretch by respacing the station molds, and also about 12 % side raising, as the original L 8' 1" x B 3' 6" (L 2.46 m x B 1.07 m) is optimized for kids weighing only 100 to 150 lbs (45 - 68 kg).​

I've added a P.S. to my above post. - Also below some threads for info about D. N. Goodchild:

D. N. Goodchild - Design Archive - - - Plans from D. N. Goodchild​

 

Thank you, Angelique. I will look at them.
Wishing you and your family a very happy Christmas !

Hi Beernd,

Cutting off the first ‘‘http://’’ from the link makes it work: - http://www.svensons.com/boat/ - the link can also be seen in post #12.

Hi Dirk,

Have a look at Boat Plans Online ---> Runabouts: O/B ---> Maximus^-PDF

Looks like adaptable to Grandpa's style

Good Luck

Re: post #16

Meant is only a modest V-bottom entry¹ there, by cutting a dart² out of the front of the bottom panel, this requires some lofting.

¹ meaning going to flat, or near flat, towards the transom.

² the cut out dart is pulled together during the build and so becomes the V-bottom entry.​
