    New cat build from scratch

    Man this stuff is addicting, I love it! Found these plans online and I just had to try it! I have built wooden rc planes before and now that the boat bug has bitten me I just started this wood catamaran. It measures 45" long and 16" wide. What do you guys think? Iam waiting for parts for my v hull that is posted on here so I thought I would build this. I will post progress if anyone wants to respond and give advice on this build. Here are some pics.IMAG0387.jpgIMAG0392.jpgIMAG0390.jpgIMAG0396.jpg

    Looks awesome! What plans did you use? I'm in the midst of building a v hull as well and got hooked on the building bug so thought I would see what else is out there to try.

      I found them on this site, just look up scratch catamaran plans. I printed them out and cut them out of 1/8" plywood. Post some pics of your build I would love to see them!
