What is in Vivier Plans?

Stock Plans Content

The plans are in fact a full set of documents including:

  • A chronological guide to all documents (see further) to be referred to at each stage.
  • General plans and detail plans, for example centreboard case, specific deck fittings (26 plans A3 size on Stir Ven).

Below: Reduced examples of plans and detail plans

Below: Example of plywood part nesting plan used
for NC cutting or to help manual cutting

  • Plans with offsets of the sections, the stem with its bevels, the extended transom, and even profile of hull planks.
    Attention: some plans do not include dimensioned plans of sections. In that case full scale patterns on polyester film are proposed and they have to be purchased with the plan. In such a case, a notice is always given in the catalogue or price list.
  • Plans with precise instructions to give your suppliers (sailmaker in particular) ensuring you the best possible result (functional and aesthetic).
  • "Wooden boatbuilding sheets" which constitute a real illustrated book (50 pages for Ilur) explaining each stage of the construction, step by step. Note: for now, these sheets are not translated into English but equivalent information may be found in English books on boatbuilding
Below: Example of "Wooden boatbuilding sheets"
  • Detailed material lists of necessary sawn timber, plywood sheets, fittings
Below: Example of fittings list
  • Instructions relating to the application of regulations (European).
  • Lastly, a free telephone or e-mail assistance is available to each purchaser.
