    Hi firstly i would like to thanks for all the replies inregard to house boat plans pontoon or cat design. i recived alot of good info on pontoon and mono styles but no info on a catamaran house boat.::)
    The boat i build will only ever be used on calm rivers and slow power cruse and as stated before so it would not need to be a wided hull design rather than a deep hull design. And as I have my own fiber glass chopper gun i would like to make it from FGR. Can anyone help :? ie; Plans web sites software programes advice any info will help.
    Approx size limits 60ft (18m) length by 28ft (8m) as set by Australian inland water ways surveys :!: .
    Regards
    Mark

    Catamaran riverboat:

    Found at www.paranagypsy.com.

    It will be very hard to find standard plans for what you want.

    As i mentioned in your previous thread you may need to reconcider your building method. You may have bought a chopper gun but you can still save a lot of money and efford if you choose the right way of building your project.

    I like this design, it is "boatlike" when you have a house moving on the water it should look like a boat, not like a house on floats.

    Hi
    I agree with you it is a nice looking house boat if only i could find, buy, or get somebody to draw plans for a house boat like it I would be happy.
    any ideas where or who i need to talk to or can some body suggest a good design programe and would that programe help with pontoon size for finished weight.
    Sorry about this I have been hitting a brick wall wiyh the Aussie Authorities.
    Regards
