Boat Plans Catamaran

When a prominent Builder of aluminum boats asked me to design a flat bottom skiff to present for a bid to what I assume is a Government contract, I scratched my head. Flat bottom ! I think there are better ways to go but it presented a challenge, and I am not one to refuse competition.


Bow deck; bow gate; self bailing deck; bow steps; black fendering; steering console aft; fuel tank storage below; 90hp Yanmar. Trailer.

What is a Garvey hull? A modified Scow with some deadrise in the bow and a flat, or near flat bottom as you near the stern. They are work boats, relatively light and with plenty of volume stability inherited by shape.
I drew the Lines Plan with convex sections, narrowing the waterline forward, while maintening the width of the deck for the purpose of the ramp and gate. The rest is straightforward and adheres to the the spirit of the specifications. (to be continued).
