Gavin Atkin
|
I
have known Gavin Atkin for about seven
years now. In that time, he has revealed a deep
understanding of boat design principles, and a willingness
to share that knowledge. He has contributed numerous
articles to Duckworks Magazine, and helped untold numbers
of boat builders through his website Free
Boat Design Resources.
In
addition to all that, Gavin has drawn over a dozen
original designs aimed at amateur builders. You
will find links to those designs below. Click
the links to find a page where you can read about each
design and download a zip file containing complete plans
for free.
 Probably
Gavin's most successful design is the Mouse ~O8>
This little boat, originally designed for kids, has
taken on a life of it's own. It has spawned an
active Yahoo
Discussion Group, and spun off a fleet of variations
as an "open source" design. Plans for
the Mouse are free (see below) but Gavin has written
a complete building pamphlet and we are proud to offer
a print of this document along with all necessary charts,
drawings, and files. This material is available
for $20 plus p&h |
