    Those plans already exist, obviously. Why not use those?

    Okay, but how do you propose someone here could repeat that boat unless only recreating something that looks, but does not perform like the photos?
    Or if the boat itself exists, could you take lines off of it?

    Are you saying you wisdh to hire someone here to draw plans for a boat that looks just like the one in the picture you posted?

    Yes, I can draw those plans for you, but frankly, it would be a lot cheaper to use the existing plans, which I'm fairly sure are an old Whit or Jackson design.

    There are lots of these little pocket rocket plans available, is there a specific need for a custom set of plans?

    It looks like you have two different boats in the pictures,
    I think the red and white one is a Sanger??

    And the frame setup looks like this boat.

    BTW, this boat is in Florida, and you can't build it for $8500 with the trailer and all.

    There are copy rights on these things you know?
