Motor Version of Grey Swan
Full Plans
$80 England & EU
$69 USA/Elsewhere 
Study Plans
$29 England & EU
$24 USA/Elsewhere 

We have been asked to produce a wheelhouse for a motor version of the 16’ Grey Swan pocket cruiser—in doing this we have added buoyancy to the aft end and made the transom more vertical to take an outboard. Headroom in the wheelhouse is around 5’11! (1.80m) and a 5 hp outboard would move her along nicely.

These details (including the new hull construction details) cost $80 incl. VAT (UK/EU); $69 (US/Elsewhere) in addition to the standard cost of the Grey Swan Plans.
