6.1m Double Sea Kayak, Plan or Laser Cut Kit.
The 6.1m double sea kayak is a compact boat for easier car-topping. It is 650mm wide for good stability, and buoyant at the bow to help it lift over waves. The single chine construction is similar to the Yamba designs. A skeg is fitted for control but a rudder can be fitted if desired. It can be built with a weight of 25kgs. The kayak can be customised to suit individual requirements, for example... The 6.1m double sea kayak is a compact boat for easier car-topping. It is 650mm... -
6M Launch
The 6m launch does much more than Cinema for only a 1/2m extra length, and a beam of 2.4m. She fits in a V-berth forward, a bench is possible on one side, and with the longer cabin enclosing more of the cockpit, it becomes a good weekender. This design, displacing 1000 kgs, is big enough to accommodate the small 9-12hp diesels. Plans include lines, construction and arrangement, details, and...

6M Outboard Launch
The 6 metre outboard launch shares the same layout and styling as the 6m launch but is designed around a 15 to 20hp 4 stroke outboard motor. The construction method is different too, using a single chine hull form that can be done in plywood, featuring a cold-moulded bottom and lapstrake or sheet ply topsides. Strip plank is also an option, and the dimensions are similar to the inboard hull,... The 6 metre outboard launch shares the same layout and styling as the 6m launch... -

Cinema is a classic style of launch, with a cuddy cabin or raised deck and wheelhouse, 5.5m long and 2.15m wide. Quite big enough for day trips and even weekend camping trips, she takes a 5-8hp engine. 15mm WR Cedar and 400gsm reinforcements with sawn floors and some laminated frames are the basis of the strip plank structure, while another option is 12mm thick ply glued lapstrake. Plans cover... Cinema is a classic style of launch, with a cuddy cabin or raised deck and whee... -

Iluka Sea Kayak 5.2m LOA Plan or Kit (not precut)
The Iluka sea kayak is a contemporary plywood design based on the 5.2m length and 575mm beam dimensions favoured by many of the dedicated sea kayak enthusiasts. These proportions give a responsive boat with good stability, able to cruise at a high speed. Compared to the earlier 5.5m, 650 mm beam design, this narrower hull should be much easier to Eskimo roll, a good safety feature offshore when...
